X12 856 DSD Ship Notice/Manifest
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.

- 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
- Item
Code indicating if there are hierarchical child data segments subordinate to the level being described
- HL04 indicates whether or not there are subordinate (or child) HL segments related to the current HL segment.
- 0
- No Subordinate HL Segment in This Hierarchical Structure.
Item Identification
To specify basic item identification data
At Item Level, identifies the UPC Code, and possibly Vendor’s or HEB’s code for the item.

Item Detail (Shipment)
To specify line-item detail relative to shipment
Example: SN1*16EA2450*EA~
Numeric value of units shipped in manufacturer's shipping units for a line item or transaction set
Code specifying the units in which a value is being expressed, or manner in which a measurement has been taken
- SN103 defines the unit of measurement for both SN102 and SN104.
- EA
- Each
Number of units shipped to date
Item Physical Details
To specify the physical qualities, packaging, weights, and dimensions relating to the item
Specifies Packaging of Item In container.
Example: PO44*****100LB120CF*****2~
The number of inner containers, or number of eaches if there are no inner containers, per outer container
Code specifying the units in which a value is being expressed, or manner in which a measurement has been taken
- PO403 - The "Unit or Basis for Measure Code" in this segment position is for purposes of defining the pack (PO401) /size (PO402) measure which indicates the quantity in the inner pack unit. For example: If the carton contains 24 12-Ounce packages, it would be described as follows: Data element 356 = "24"; Data element 357 = "12"; Data element 355 = "OZ".
Numeric value of gross weight per pack
Weight of Item container.
Code specifying the units in which a value is being expressed, or manner in which a measurement has been taken
- LB
- Pound
Numeric value of gross volume per pack
Code specifying the units in which a value is being expressed, or manner in which a measurement has been taken
Product/Item Description
To describe a product or process in coded or free-form format
Mandatory for Crossdock
Example: PIDF***THIS IS THE DESCRIPTION~
Code indicating the format of a description
- If PID01 equals "F", then PID05 is used. If PID01 equals "S", then PID04 is used. If PID01 equals "X", then both PID04 and PID05 are used.
- F
- Free-form
- S
- Structured (From Industry Code List)
- X
- Semi-structured (Code and Text)
Reference Identification
To specify identifying information
Example: REFSEA3829L0123~
Code qualifying the Reference Identification
- SE
- Serial Number
Date Packed
To specify pertinent dates and times
Expiration
To specify pertinent dates and times
Shelf Life Expiration
To specify pertinent dates and times
Summary
Transaction Totals
To transmit a hash total for a specific element in the transaction set
- Number of line items (CTT01) is the accumulation of the number of HL segments.
If used, hash total (CTT02) is the sum of the value of units shipped (SN102) for each SN1 segment.
Summarizes Transaction
Transaction Set Trailer
To indicate the end of the transaction set and provide the count of the transmitted segments (including the beginning (ST) and ending (SE) segments)
Total number of segments included in a transaction set including ST and SE segments
Functional Group Trailer
To indicate the end of a functional group and to provide control information
Total number of transaction sets included in the functional group or interchange (transmission) group terminated by the trailer containing this data element
