Elliotts Boots EDI 850 FAQ

Common questions about 850 Purchase Order transactions with Elliotts Boots.

What information does Elliotts Boots include in an EDI 850 Purchase Order?

Elliotts Boots EDI 850 Purchase Orders contain item-level detail including UPCs or GTINs, ordered quantities, unit pricing, ship-to addresses, and requested delivery dates. Key segments like BEG (beginning of the PO), PO1 (line items), N1 (party identification), and CTT (transaction totals) structure the document. Elliotts Boots sends 850s electronically through their EDI network, and each PO must be acknowledged with an 855 to confirm receipt. Stacksync parses these fields and maps them directly to your ERP or database so orders appear automatically without manual data entry or CSV imports.

What are common reasons a Elliotts Boots EDI 850 Purchase Order gets rejected?

Stacksync validates every incoming Elliotts Boots 850 against known compliance requirements before syncing to your system, flagging anomalies immediately rather than silently dropping the transaction.

Do I need to send an EDI 855 after receiving a Elliotts Boots 850 Purchase Order?

Elliotts Boots typically requires an EDI 855 Purchase Order Acknowledgment for every 850 received. The 855 confirms that you received the PO and indicates whether you can fulfill it as ordered, need to modify quantities, or must reject specific line items. Most Elliotts Boots compliance programs expect the 855 within 24 to 48 hours of PO receipt. Stacksync can generate and send 855 acknowledgments automatically based on your acceptance rules, ensuring you never miss a compliance deadline. A 997 Functional Acknowledgment may also be required as a separate technical receipt.
