X12 856 Warehouse Ship Notice/Manifest SOTPI
This Draft Standard for Trial Use contains the format and establishes the data contents of the Ship Notice/Manifest Transaction Set (856) for use within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. The transaction set can be used to list the contents of a shipment of goods as well as additional information relating to the shipment, such as order information, product description, physical characteristics, type of packaging, marking, carrier information, and configuration of goods within the transportation equipment. The transaction set enables the sender to describe the contents and configuration of a shipment in various levels of detail and provides an ordered flexibility to convey information.
The sender of this transaction is the organization responsible for detailing and communicating the contents of a shipment, or shipments, to one or more receivers of the transaction set. The receiver of this transaction set can be any organization having an interest in the contents of a shipment or information about the contents of a shipment.

Hierarchical Level
To identify dependencies among and the content of hierarchically related groups of data segments
- The HL segment is the only mandatory segment within the HL loop, and by itself, the HL segment has no meaning.
A unique number assigned by the sender to identify a particular data segment in a hierarchical structure
- HL01 shall contain a unique alphanumeric number for each occurrence of the HL segment in the transaction set. For example, HL01 could be used to indicate the number of occurrences of the HL segment, in which case the value of HL01 would be "1" for the initial HL segment and would be incremented by one in each subsequent HL segment within the transaction.
Identification number of the next higher hierarchical data segment that the data segment being described is subordinate to
- HL02 identifies the hierarchical ID number of the HL segment to which the current HL segment is subordinate.
Code defining the characteristic of a level in a hierarchical structure
- HL03 indicates the context of the series of segments following the current HL segment up to the next occurrence of an HL segment in the transaction. For example, HL03 is used to indicate that subsequent segments in the HL loop form a logical grouping of data referring to shipment, order, or item-level information.
- I
