Usage breakdown

Who trades X12 876 Grocery Products Purchase Order Change

876 is used most heavily in grocery & food.

The 876 communicates changes to a grocery purchase order previously sent as an 875, covering quantity adjustments, item additions and deletions, and date changes. Changes are made by restating the new full value of each affected element rather than sending a delta, and deleting an item is done by restating its ordered quantity to zero. Partners require it so the supplier picks and ships against the current version of the order. The grocery retailer or wholesaler that placed the original 875 sends the 876 to the supplier to modify that order. A buyer revises a submitted grocery purchase order before fulfillment, for example a demand shift, an item cut, or a delivery date move, and transmits the revision as an 876.
