SPEC 5579 - CMS Freight Cross Reference

Date Released: Nov 2018

Modules:

  • Inbound 850 Purchase Order
  • Outbound 810 Invoice
  • Outbound 856 Advance Shipping Notice

Description:Adds a cross reference table for use with CMS to process inbound 850 and outbound 856 and 810.

Reason: Automates a manual process. The table cross references customer freight codes to the freight codes you use. The cross referenced codes are sent back to the customer via EDI outbound transactions.

New Table XXXFRTXRF (XXX = customer code)

In the example below, the ABC is the partner ID code. The From value is what comes in on the 850 and To value is what gets stored on the order. The outbound documents pass back the From value.
