Most common alongside 856
The 856 Ship Notice/Manifest, known in practice as the Advance Ship Notice (ASN), describes the contents and packing configuration of a shipment before it arrives, using nested hierarchical levels for shipment, order, pack, and item. Buyers use it to schedule dock labor and to match scanned GS1 carton labels against expected contents at receiving. Retail compliance programs treat the ASN as mandatory, and ASN errors are widely reported to generate more supplier chargebacks than any other EDI document type. Sent by the supplier, or a 3PL shipping on its behalf, to the buyer (retailer or distributor) at the time the order ships.
When it fires: A packed order is ship-confirmed and tendered to the carrier; the warehouse system generates the 856 so it reaches the buyer before the goods do.
Common 856 rejection causes
- SSCC-18 on the physical carton label does not match the SSCC in the ASN, so receiving scans fail and cartons are processed manually.
- Quantities in the ASN differ from what was physically packed or from the purchase order, a chargeback event commonly billed at 25 to 200 USD per incident.
- ASN transmitted after the truck arrives, or never sent, which retailers penalize regardless of whether the physical shipment was accurate.
- HL hierarchy (shipment/order/pack/item) flattened or nested incorrectly during mapping, causing receiving systems to misread carton contents.
