Usage notes
  1. The P.O. number in element BIG04 is required. Kmart cannot

    in the 850.

  3. Invoices for JIT purchase orders (REFPSJ1 in 850) must be rolled
    up to the DC level. Therefore, the purchase order number sent in
    your JIT invoice must contain

  • the DC number (last four digits in N1*ST with added preceding
    zero) rather than the individual store numbers
  • the last six digits from the JIT purchase order

RequiredMax use 1

To identify a party by type of organization, name, and code

Usage notes

The N1*RE segment MUST be sent on ALL invoices. When N101 contains code RE, N104 will specify the remit to location number for
the seller. This is a Kmart-assigned Accounts Payable number, which is 11 digits long. This remit to location number MUST be present on all invoices.

The remit-to number is sent in the 850 purchase order in an N1*RE
segment. Return this EXACTLY as it was sent in the 850.

The ship-to information sent in the N1 segment must be sent in one of two ways. Either it can be returned EXACTLY as it is sent on the 850 purchase order (9 qualifier in N103 and Duns plus four in N104) or it can be sent with a 92 qualifier in N103 and the four digit unit number with a preceding zero (total five digits) in N104. If the ship to information is not sent in correctly, your payment is going to be delayed.
EXAMPLES – 008965873 is the Kmart Duns number (store) and 1234 is the ship to unit:
N1ST**90089658731234
or
N1ST**9201234
000394726 is the Kmart Duns number (DC) and 8292 is the ship to unit:
N1ST**90003947268292
or
N1ST**9208292

The use of the N102 element is at the option of the seller. As long as the requirements of the N103 and N104 elements are met, the N102 element may be sent if the seller wishes.

The PID segment is used to indicate compliance with emission limits given in title 17, California Code of Regulations section 93120.2. A REF segment is also required to identify the ARB assigned number of the approved third party certifier.

The PID segment may be formatted using the VICS code values that will be implemented in v6010. Since these are VICS (retail standard) code values, the X-12 standards allows the anticipation of the code value implementation by VICS.
