Thanks, John.... That's been My contention all along - we SEND them the information - it's up to THEM to look at it and use it and compare it (if they do!) to the order generated in their system...!
We do send the SAC (allowances) for each item and not at the PO summary level. It's at the item detail. One reason is simply because we can have multiple items from a single vendor with different allowances - for whatever reason. Craig E. Dunham EDI Coordinator EYE Analyst From: John Fiorino [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2008 9:38 AM To: Dunham Craig E.; [email protected] Subject: RE: [EDI-L] Revision to the PO Map (850). Craig, What use would there be in sending the total quantity and amount being ordered be if there are multiple lines in the order?? , this genius in accounting wants us to transmit a total dollar value of the invoice (with allowances applied) and a total number of units being ordered How would that help me reconcile my invoices (or orders) if it is sent at the summary level? Line 1 Cost: $10.00 Allow: 10% Qty :1000 Line 2 Cost: $8.00 Allow: 5% Qty :50 Line 3 Cost $10.00 Allow 5% Qty 500 Line 4 Cost $100 Allow 0% Qty 100 Total order/invoice value: ($9000+380+4750+1000) : $15,130 Total Qty 1650 How do these totals tell me if an allowance was taken and for how many units and what line at what rate? If anything I'd expect to see a SAC segment at the detail level - PO1 or IT1, then there'd be no confusion. I can then do as I wish with it and have all the data I'd need to reconcile any way I'd want. (Or am I missing something here....?) Just my .02 worth.
