The number of cartons, weight and lading quantity "at the order level" is 
totally useless information. If you are tracing a shipment, you want those 
values at the *shipment* level.  Unless you thinkYellow Freight can figure 
out that six of those twelve pieces (the lading quantity) they picked up 
yesterday are for your PO 12345.

Given my druthers, if I had to convey invoice number and department number - 
and assuming these are in fact assigned on a "per purchase order" basis  - 
in an ASN, I think I'd choose to use an (O)rder level HL loop SUBORDINATE to 
the pack (standard pack) or Item (pick-and-pack) loop.
