EDI 850 Purchase Order
The EDI 850 is a Purchase Order transaction set, used to place an order for goods or services.
What is EDI 850?
Also known as an electronic purchase order, the EDI 850 is often the first step in ordering. The EDI 850 generally provides the same information you would find in a paper PO document, including:- Item, prices and quantities ordered
- Shipping details
- Payment terms
- Discounts
EDI 850 Documentation
Simply accepting an EDI 850 from your trading partner is usually not sufficient for full EDI compliance. Most trading partners will expect other EDI transactions from you in response to the purchase order such as:- EDI 997 Functional Acknowledgement - to confirm receipt of the EDI 850
- EDI 810 Invoice – to replace the traditional paper-based invoice
- EDI 856 Advance Ship Notice – to describe the contents of each shipment and how items were packed.
- EDI 855 Order Acknowledgement – sent in response to the EDI 850 to confirm you can meet the requirements set in the purchase order
- EDI 860 Order Change Request – sent to request an update to the details on the original purchase order
