If you can stand one more note on the 211...
Some additional information from the American Trucking Associations
Information Technology and Logicstics Council's Motor Carrier Industry Guide
to EDI Implementation and Conventions:
Transaction Set 211 is used by a less than truckload motor carrier as a
replacement of, or supplement to, a paper bill of lading. It is sent from
the company that controls the freight to the motor carrier.
>From an Electronic Commerce World article (Transportation Report, Feb '98):
The ATA ITLC EDI Task force is 'recommending that if you're dealing in
truckload shipments, use the 204. If you're dealing in LTL, use the 211. And
if you're dealing with small package carriers, use the 215. Those three EDI
transactions are all equivalent means of sending bill-of-lading
information.'
