Federal Implementation Guideline for Electronic Data Interchange. ASC X12 003060Transaction Set 830R. Planning Schedule with Release Capability (Special Program Requirements). Implementation Convention

摘要

This Draft Standard for Trial Use contains the format and establishes the datacontents of the Planning Schedule with Release Capability Transaction Set (830) for use within the context of an Electronic Data Intechange (EDI) environment. The transaction set can be used to provide for customary and established business practice relative to the transfer of forecasting/material release information between organizations. The planning schedule transcation may be used in various ways or in a combination of ways, such as: (1) a simple forecast; (2) a forecast with the buyer's authorization for the seller to commit to resources, such as labor or material; (3) a forecast that is also used as an order release mechanism, containing such elements as resource authorizations, period-to-date cumulative quantities, and specific ship/delivery patterns for requirements that have been representated in 'buckets,' such as weekly, monthly, or quarterly. The order release forecast may also contain all data related to purchase orders, as required, because the order release capability eliminates the need for discrete generation of purchase orders.
