rhe National Institute of Standards and Technology was established in 1988 by Congress to "assist industry in the development of technology . . . needed to improve product quality, to modernize manufacturing processes,

to ensure product reliability . . . and to facilitate rapid commercialization ... of products based on new scientific

discoveries."

NIST, originally founded as the National Bureau of Standards in 1901, works to strengthen U.S. industry's

competitiveness; advance science and engineering; and improve public health, safety, and the environment. One

of the agency's basic functions is to develop, maintain, and retain custody of the national standards of

measurement, and provide the means and methods for comparing standards used in science, engineering,

manufacturing, commerce, industry, and education with the standards adopted or recognized by the Federal

Government.

As an agency of the U.S. Commerce Department's Technology Administration, NIST conducts basic and

applied research in the physical sciences and engineering, and develops measurement techniques, test methods, standards, and related services. The Institute does generic and precompetitive work on new and

advanced technologies. NIST's research facilities are located at Gaithersburg, MD 20899, and at Boulder, CO 80303.

Major technical operating units and their principal activities are listed below. For more information contact the

Publications and Program Inquiries Desk, 301-975-3058.

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)'s Information Technology Laboratory (ITL)

develops standards and guidelines, provides technical assistance, and conducts research for computers

and resources. As part of the overall federal effort to establish a single face to industry for conducting

electronic commerce, ITL has been designated as the organization responsible for coordinating the

development of Federal Implementation Conventions (ICs) for Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). ICs are

defined by functional-area experts who create and select options from standard EDI Transaction Sets to yield the implementations to be used for practical EDI. These ICs are made available to federal agencies

and industry by electronic means and this Special Publication Series.

Introduction:

This Draft Standard for Trial Use contains the format and establishes the data contents of the Purchase Order

Transaction Set (850) for use within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. The

transaction set can be used to provide for customary and established business and industry practice relative to the

placement of pxirchase orders for goods and services. This transaction set should not be used to convey purchase

order changes or purchase order acknowledgment information.

Notes:

1. The term "award instrument" used in this convention includes, but is not limited to, thefollowing terms:

Agreement, Blanket Purchase Agreement, Contract, Basic Agreement, Basic Ordering Agreement, Grant,

Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity Contract, Purchase Order, Indefinite Delivery Definite Quantity Contract,

Requirements Contract, Letter Contract, Task Order, Lease, Release, Call, and Delivery Order.

2. This transaction set is used to issue an original award instrument Ifbuyer initiated changes need to be made

to an award instrument, use the Purchase Order Change Request ~ Buyer Initiated, 860 transaction set Seller

requested changes are initiated using the Purchasing Order Change Acknowledgment/Request - Seller Initiated,

865 transaction set

3. This transaction set makes use ofcode lists contained in the Federal EDI Coding Manual which is available

from the National Institute ofStandards and technology (NIST) at URL http://snad.ncsl.nist.gov/fededi/

If segment LIN is used, do not use LINO 1

PO 102 is required.

The SCH segment is used to specify various quantities of items ordered that are to be scheduled. When this

segment is used the unit of measurement code (SCH02) should always be identical to the unit of

measurement code in the associated POl segment (PO103) and the sum of values of quantity (SCHOl) should

always equal the quantity ordered (POl 02) in the POl segment.

The number of line items (CTTOl) is the accumulation of the number of POl segments. If used, hash total (CTT02) is the sum of the value of quantities ordered (POl 02) for each POl segment.

If AMT is used in the summary area, then AMTOl will = TT and AMT02 will indicate total transaction

amount as calculated by the sender.

identifiers. 3 P04 1 7 is the ending package identifier in a range of identifiers.

4 P04 1 8 is the number of packages in this layer.

1 PO403 - The "Unit or Basis for Measure Code" in this segment position is for

purposes of defining the pack (PO40 1 ) /size (PO402) measure which indicates the

quantity in the inner pack unit. For example: If the carton contains 24 12-Ounce

packages, it would be described as follows: Data element 356 = "24"; Data element

357 = "12"; Data element 355 = "OZ".

2 P04 1 3 defmes the unit of measure for P04 1 0, P04 11 , and P04 1 2

.

Notes: /. Use this segment to specify the weight, cube, or dimensions ofthe unit or

intermediate pack; the unitpack quantity or intermediate container quantity; to indicate that palletized loads are required; or to indicate that shrink wrap is required.

To specify the unitpack quantity, use PO401 and PO404 (code VNT). Ifthere are 50

pairs in a unit container, PO401 would cite 50 and PO404 would cite code UNT.

2. Ifit is necessary to specify not only the quantity of items in a unit container, but

also the size and unit ofmeasure ofthose items, use PO401, PO402, PO403 and

PO404. In this instance, if there are 24, 12 ounce bottles in the unit container, PO401

would cite 24, PO402 would cite 12, PO403 would cite code OZ andPO404 would cite

code UNT. In either ofthese examples, the number ofunit containers in an

intermediate container would be carried in P0414. Ifonly the quantity per

intermediate container is required, use code INT in PO404 and cite the quantity in

P0414.

2 If MAN06 is present, then MAN05 is required.

1 MANO 1/MAN02 and MAN04/MAN05 may be used to identify two different marks

and numbers assigned to the same physical container.

2 When both MAN02 and MAN03 are used, MAN02 is the starting number of a

sequential range and MAN03 is the ending number of that range.

3 When both MAN05 and MAN06 are used, MAN05 is the starting number of a

sequential range, and MAN06 is the ending number of that range.

1 When MANOl contains code "UC" (U.P.C. Shipping Container Code) and

MAN05/MAN06 contain a range of ID numbers, MAN03 is not used. The reason for

this is that the U.P.C. Shipping Container code is the same on every carton that is represented in the range in MAN05/MAN06.

2 MAN03 and/or MAN06 are only used when sending a range(s) of ID numbers.

When both MAN02/MAN03 and MAN05/MAN06 are used to send ranges of ID

Technical Publications

Periodical

Journal of Research of the National Institute of Standards and Technology—Reports NIST research

and development in those disciphnes of the physical and engineering sciences in which the Institute is active. These include physics, chemistry, engineering, mathematics, and computer sciences. Papers cover a broad range of subjects, with major emphasis on measurement methodology and the basic technology

underlying standardization. Also included from time to time are survey articles on topics closely related to the Institute's technical and scientific programs. Issued six times a year.

Nonperiodicals

Monographs—Major contributions to the technical literature on various subjects related to the

Institute's scientific and technical activities. Handbooks—Recommended codes of engineering and industrial practice (including safety codes) developed in cooperation with interested industries, professional organizations, and regulatory bodies.

Special Publications—Include proceedings of conferences sponsored by NIST, NIST annual reports, and

other special publications appropriate to this grouping such as wall charts, pocket cards, and bibliographies.

National Standard Reference Data Series—Provides quantitative data on the physical and chemical

properties of materials, compiled from the world's literature and critically evaluated. Developed under a worldwide program coordinated by NIST under the authority of the National Standard Data Act (Public

Law 90-396). NOTE: The Journal of Physical and Chemical Reference Data (JPCRD) is published

bimonthly for NIST by the American Chemical Society (ACS) and the American Institute of Physics (AIP).

Subscriptions, reprints, and supplements are available from ACS, 1155 Sixteenth St., NW, Washington, DC

20056.

Building Science Series—Disseminates technical information developed at the Institute on building

materials, components, systems, and whole structures. The series presents research results, test methods, and

performance criteria related to the structural and environmental functions and the durability and safety

characteristics of building elements and systems.

Technical Notes—Studies or reports which are complete in themselves but restrictive in their treatment of

a subject. Analogous to monographs but not so comprehensive in scope or definitive in treatment of the

subject area. Often serve as a vehicle for final reports of work performed at NIST under the sponsorship of

other government agencies.

Voluntary Product Standards—Developed under procedures published by the Department of Commerce

in Part 10, Title 15, of the Code of Federal Regulations. The standards establish nationally recognized

requirements for products, and provide all concerned interests with a basis for common understanding of

the characteristics of the products. NIST administers this program in support of the efforts of private-sector

standardizing organizations.

Order the following NIST publications—FIPS and NISTIRs—from the National Technical Information

Service, Springfield, VA 22161.

Federal Information Processing Standards Publications (FIPS PUB)—Publications in this series

collectively constitute the Federal Information Processing Standards Register. The Register serves as the

official source of information in the Federal Government regarding standards issued by NIST pursuant to the Federal Property and Administrative Services Act of 1949 as amended. Public Law 89-306 (79 Stat. 1127), and as implemented by Executive Order 1 1717 (38 FR 12315, dated May 1 1, 1973) and Part 6 of

Title 15 CFR (Code of Federal Regulations).

NIST Interagency or Internal Reports (NISTIR)—The series includes interim or final reports on work

performed by NIST for outside sponsors (both government and nongovernment). In general, initial

distribution is handled by the sponsor; public distribution is handled by sales through the National Technical

Information Service, Springfield, VA 22161, in hard copy, electronic media, or microfiche form. NISTlR's

may also report results of NIST projects of transitory or limited interest, including those that will be

published subsequently in more comprehensive form.
