X12 862 Shipping Schedule

X12 Release 2002

This standard provides the format and establishes the data content of a Shipping Schedule Transaction within the context of an electronic data interchange (EDI) environment.

The Shipping Schedule Transaction provides the ability for a customer to convey precise shipping schedule requirements to a supplier, and is intended to supplement ANSI X12.14-1986 Planning Schedule transaction set (830). The shipping schedule transaction set will supercede certain shipping and delivery information transmitted in a previous planning schedule transaction, but it does not replace ANSI X12.14-1986. The shipping schedule transaction set shall not be used to authorize labor, materials or other resources.

The use of this transaction set will facilitate the practice of Just In Time (JIT) manufacturing by providing the customer with a mechanism to issue precise shipping schedule requirements on a more frequent basis than with the issuance of a planning schedule transaction, e.g. daily shipping schedules versus weekly planning schedules. The shipping schedule transaction also provides the ability for a customer location to issue shipping requirements independent of other customerlocations when planning schedule transactions are issued by a consolidated scheduling organization.
