The 861 notifies a supplier of the receipt or formal acceptance of goods. It reports quantities received against what was ordered and flags damaged, rejected, or contested quantities through receiving-condition detail, with the BRA segment distinguishing a receiving advice from an acceptance certificate. Buyers use it to document delivery condition at the dock so discrepancies are resolved from a shared record rather than ad hoc correspondence. Sent by the receiving party, the buyer or its warehouse or 3PL, to the supplier after a shipment has been checked in.

When it fires: Dock staff complete check-in of a delivery and post the goods receipt; the 861 carries the counted, accepted, and rejected quantities back to the supplier.

Common 861 rejection causes
  • Receipt reported against the wrong purchase order or shipment reference, so the supplier cannot tie the advice back to the original 850 and 856.
  • Quantity or unit-of-measure mismatches between the receipt line and the order line, producing false shortage or overage reports.
  • Contested quantities reported without receiving-condition detail, so the supplier knows units were disputed but not whether they were damaged, rejected, or short.
  • Advice transmitted late or skipped for clean receipts, delaying discrepancy resolution and inventory reconciliation.
