0. INTRODUCTION
This specification provides the definition of the Purchase
order change request message (ORDCHG) to be used in Electronic
Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in
administration, commerce and transport.
1. SCOPE
1.1 Functional Definition
A message from the buyer to the seller, specifying details of
the buyer's request to change a purchase order.
1.2 Field of Application
The UN Standard Purchase Order Change Message may be applied
for both national and international trade. It is based on
universal commercial practice and is not dependent on the type
of business or industry.
1.3 Principles
A buyer may request to change, or eventually cancel one or more
goods items or services.
A purchase order change request may refer to goods items or
services related to one or more delivery schedules, call-offs,
etc.
A purchase order change request for cross-border transactions
may contain additional information for customs and/or
statistical purposes.
A purchase order change request may contain details for
transport and destination as well as delivery patterns.
2. REFERENCES
See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.6 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction,
Section 1.
3. TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
See UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.6 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction,
Section 2.
4. MESSAGE DEFINITION
This section is provided to give clarification and further
explanation to the usage of segments within the message
structure.
Any change to an original order requested by the seller using a
Purchase Order Response is acknowledged by the buyer by
transmitting a purchase order change request message. Where
there are multiple line items, and the positioning cannot be
established through the use of given values in data element
1082 (line item number) all line items must be re-transmitted
solely to establish the relative position of the line item.
Data required for re-transmission, for this purpose, can be
sent in truncated form by use of the "not amended" value coded
in data element 1229.
4.1 Data Segment Clarification
This section should be read in conjunction with the Branching
Diagram and the Segment Table which indicate mandatory,
conditional and repeating requirements.
For guidance, the following principles serve to remove
ambiguity in the application of an EDI Purchase Order Change.
All specified dates/times should be in the format
'yymmdd'/'hhmm' unless all parties involved in the transaction
agree that there is a functional requirement for an alternative
format. Periods should be specified as whole numbers
representing the required period as indicated in the format
qualifier (weeks, months, etc.).
Where a choice of code or text is given only the code element
should be used wherever possible.
Conditional data that is not required in the message should not
be included.
Care must be taken that the segment qualifier in dependent
segments do not conflict with the segment qualifier of the
trigger segment of a group.
Free text information within the message should be avoided as
this inhibits automatic processing.
4.1.1 Header section
Information to be provided in the Header section:
The heading section of ORDCHG message contains the same
segments in the same sequence as the ORDERS and ORDRSP
messages. The actual use of these segments in the ORDCHG
