Actually, the "Big Four" documents in edi for wholesale distribution are the 
850, 810, 856 and 997.

While you may think of the 997 as some superficial little nothing, it actually 
serves as an important 
link in the document chain. Without it you'd have no way to verify document 
receipt and would
spend countless hours on the phone chasing wayward documents. And you'll be the 
infamous coordinator
issuing the "i don't know" phrase when your A/P department asks if the invoices 
were delivered or the
salesman calls and wants to know where the truck of stuff is. The documents 
facilitate the job, but
they don't consume it.

<bow, applause><glad you didn't call me a public drunk ... you'd be very far 
from the truth.>

Subject: [EDI-L] the Big 3 - 810, 850, 856

Hi - Am I correct in stating the big 3 documents in EDI are 810-850-856?

I recall in my programming of these documents some issues to be concerned about 
were sending wrong data, as well as receiving wrong data. That is, even if the 
customer sent in bad data, for example some bad UPC number, if we did not 
rectify this situation, we get the chargeback. This has happened many times 
here at work. or for example, if the sent their data in such a way as to get a 
Huge Allowance rebate more than they are supposed to. I cannot recall similar 
problems with the 810 but am sure this exists.

Am interested in hearing like cases of problems and situations you have had to 
deal with in these 3 documents, or anything else which is used in the 
Manufacturers side as well.

TIA,
Adam
