>If we were to derive a PO out of 862, what factors do we have to consider?
I have seen 862 (inbound) TREATED as though it were an 850
As far as what factors you'd have to consider to do that, you'd consider the
exact same factors you would consider had you received an '850.' Or an
'830' (which I've also seen treated as an '850').
The only other factor I'd consider is, if I am going out to my customers to
tell them I can now accept their purchase orders electronically in ANSI ASC
X12 format the number '862' would never cross my lips.
Call me crazy, but I'd ask my customers to use the "850 purchase order"
transaction set to convey "purchase orders."
