Hi, I guess we can get this info of total number of items shipped using CTT segment. Can we take the Hash total as this?

First of all I'd like to say it is very nice and refreshing to see a retailer actually take into account what the vendors can or can not do and ask what is easier for them. I don't see this very often. Bravo Craig! As for your question, like most everyone else I agree with the ISS. I would expect that most systems will give people an option to either send an item or carton count in this segment. If you mandate that you want an item count you'll always get what you want. It's been a while since I've worked with any BIG 5 vendors so I don't remember if you support cases in the IT1 segments or not, but that would be the only trick to this whole thing. If everyone always invoices in eaches they'll have the total item count without having to do any kind of conversion. I don't like the IT3 or QTY segments just for the simple fact that these would only give you a total count for each item (same as is in the IT1 segment, or you'll send the same information over and over if you send the shipment total after each line.

Posted by: "Craig Dunham" [EMAIL PROTECTED] com edibig5 Thu Sep 27, 2007 9:42 am (PST) Hi gang.... I'm creating an 810 Invoice document spec. Because of the way we have things set in our AP system, it is necessary to have a "Total units in shipment" type of a number - so that if we've got 3 line items being shipped (and invoiced), that we get the total number of items having been shipped - no matter what item it is.... We're invoiced for 100 ea of Widget A, 250 ea of Widget B and 150 ea of Widget C - total shipment of 500 units. I'm looking at 3 different possible segments: IT 3 - Additional Item Data This would put it at the Item Level with the IT1 and SAC segments. QTY - Quantity This also is at the Item Level with the IT1 and SAC segments. ISS - Invoice Shipment Summary This is at the end of the document just before the CTT and SE segments. Currently, we have one trading partner that is using the ISS segment - but lists the quantity of cartons/cases in the shipment, as opposed to the number of total items shipped (across product lines). So, I ask all of you - which segment would you use in an 810 Invoice - and WHY.....? Thanks in advance for all the replies.... Craig Dunham EDI Coordinator Big 5 Sporting Goods.
