EDI 943 Warehouse Stock Transfer Shipment Advice
The EDI 943 Warehouse Stock Transfer Shipment Advice transaction set is an advance ship notice to a remote warehouse that a transfer shipment has been made from the manufacturer. The 943 transaction may also be used by manufacturers to authorize a warehouse to accept a return from a customer.
Unlike the 856 Advance Ship Notice, which is used to notify customers of shipments, the 943 is specifically for shipments to third-party warehouse locations. The 943 typically provides the receiving location with detailed information regarding the product being shipped. This may include:
- Date of shipment
- Manufacturer of goods
- Receiving warehouse identification and location
- Ship-from location address
- Carrier information
- Item information including item number, quantity, unit of measure, etc.
