X12 850 Retail Purchase Order

X12 Release 4010

This Draft Standard for Trial Use contains the format and establishes the data contents of the Purchase Order Transaction Set (850) for use within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. The transaction set can be used to provide for customary and established business and industry practice relative to the placement of purchase orders for goods and services. This transaction set should not be used to convey purchase order changes or purchase order acknowledgment information.

An AS in PO103 represents an assortment pack. Component item details will be sent in the PO1/SLN loop.

When PO103 = AS, then PO106 UP is a Kohl’s assigned prepack UPC. The SLN09 loop will then contain trading partner’s component item UPCs.

Kohl’s can send any number of the codes listed for PO106 depending on the information in the Kohl’s system. These codes can occur in any

Item Physical Details

OptionalMax use >1

To specify the physical qualities, packaging, weights, and dimensions relating to the item

Usage notes

Due to legacy processes within Kohl’s system the logic used for the PO4 segment is non-standard. The PO4 logic used is based on Kohl’s business rules.

Bulk Purchase Order:

  • PO103 = EA
  • PO401 = the number of eaches per inner pack.
  • PO402 = the total number of packs per outer carton.
    Packs can represent inner carton, rubber banded items (SKU’s) or poly bagged items (SKU’s). This is a single SKU carton.
  • PO401 (eaches) x PO402 (packs) = total number of units per carton.

Prepack (One Assortment per Carton):

  • PO103 = AS
  • PO102 = the number of assortments ordered.
  • PO401 = the number of assortments within one outer carton. This will always be 1, for one assortment in an outer carton.
  • SLN04 = the number of eaches for the individual item (pack ratio).
  • Total number of units per carton = the sum of the SLN04 fields within the assortment.
    For example, the carton below should contain 12 units.
    PO41

    SLN
    000003I4EA3.08UP800097474381CB*9998877

Inner Prepack (More than one of the same Assortment per Carton):

  • PO103 = AS
  • PO102 = the number of assortments ordered.
  • PO401 = the number of inner assortments within one outer carton. This will be more than one assortment in an outer carton.
  • PO414 = Inner pack is always one. This is defined as one of each of the inner packs.
  • SLN04 = the number of eaches for the individual item (pack ratio).
    -Total number of units per carton = the sum of the SLN04 fields within the assortment multiplied by the PO401 field.
    For example, the carton below should contain 24 units (2 assortments containing 12 units each)

    SLN000003**I4EA3.08*UP800097474381*CB9998877
  • To calculate number of cartons ordered on a prepack purchase order use the following formula:
    Assortments ordered (PO102) divided by Inner (PO401) = number of cartons.
    For example, if PO102 = 100 and PO401 = 2, then 50 cartons would be shipped.

  • 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".
