This is a solution that works very well for all
involved.  At market the Retailer gives us the PO
number.  The order is created during the market
session and the Vendor enters the order on the Vendor
system.  An 855 is then sent to the Retailer to avoid
the duplication of entry.  We only send an 855 for
orders taken at Market so price and PO numbers are not
an issue.  We have been using the 855 within this
process for 4 years now.
