  • Prevent an old report from overwriting a newer location balance.

Original document reference and matching response

  • Reconcile the inventory report with the source after a timeout before sending it again. A lost response can occur after the destination has already processed the document.

How the related documents differ

Each message represents a different business event. Use shared references to connect the records while tracking each message’s outcome separately.

Implementation steps

  1. Choose the starting event and owner

    Decide which application acts when inventory is reported or requested. Name the operational owner of the inventory report and the team that resolves rejected or ambiguous messages.

  2. Keep record IDs connected

    Map item, location, quantity qualifier and observation time. Confirm qualifiers, code lists, units and date/time meaning against the agreed EDIFACT version and partner guide. Preserve the source reference alongside any new destination identifier.

  3. Test failures before launch

    Run the failure cases in the mapping table against realistic inventory report data. Check how the receiving system reports a rejection and how your team corrects it without creating a duplicate.

  4. Track every document to completion

    Record transport delivery and document validation separately from successful inventory report processing. Give unresolved errors an owner and check the receiving system before approving retries.

Go-live checklist

  • An approved INVRPT sample and the agreed version and partner guide are available.
  • The mapping tests pass with realistic inventory report data.
  • Each submitted document can be traced through delivery, validation and processing in the receiving system.
  • Your team knows how to investigate and recover a rejected or timed-out inventory report without processing it twice.
