Usage breakdown
Who trades X12 869 Order Status Inquiry
869 is used most heavily in furniture & home.
The 869 is the buyer's electronic request for the current status of one or more previously placed orders, asking for details such as ship dates and the shipment, backorder, or cancellation status of ordered items. Trading partners use it to replace phone and email follow-up when expected order-visibility documents have not arrived; the supplier is expected to answer with an 870 Order Status Report. The buyer sends the 869 to the supplier, who responds with an 870 Order Status Report. An open purchase order passes its expected acknowledgment or ship date without an 855 or 856 arriving, and the buyer's purchasing system issues an 869 to ask where the order stands.
