0. INTRODUCTION
This specification provides the definition of the Receiving
advice message (RECADV) to be used in Electronic Data
Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in
administration, commerce and transport.
1. SCOPE
1.1 Functional Definition
This message is to address the business needs related to the
goods receipt. This message is used to report the physical
receipt of goods. The message allows for the reporting of
discrepancies in products, quantities, terms, packages, etc.
The message may contain only the information that the received
consignment is completely in line with the consignment
information given in the Despatch advice message. In case there
is no detail to be provided.
The message may inform about the discrepancies:
- between the received consignment and consignment information
given in the Despatch advice message.
- between the received goods and the ordered goods in the
ORDERS, DELFOR or DELJIT information.
1.2 Field of Application
The Receiving advice message may be used for both national and
international applications. It is based on universal practice
related to administration, commerce and transport, and is not
dependent on the type of business or industry.
1.3 Principles
The message is initiated by the party which received the goods.
The message relates to a single or to multiple receiving
points. It may cover a number of different items or packages.

4. MESSAGE DEFINITION
This section is provided to give clarification and further
explanation to the usage of segments within the message
structure.
4.1 Data Segment Clarification
This section should be read in conjunction with the Segment
Table which indicate mandatory, conditional and repeating
requirements.
The following guidelines and principles apply to the whole
message and are intended to facilitate the understanding and
implementation of the message:
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.
Care must be taken to avoid the conflicting use of qualifiers.
Free text information within the message should be avoided as
this inhibits automatic processing.
