846 Inventory Inquiry/Advice

Functional Group=IB

Purpose: This Draft Standard for Trial Use contains the format and establishes the data contents of the Inventory Inquiry/Advice Transaction

Set (846) for use within the context of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) environment. The transaction set can be used in the following ways:

(1) for a seller of goods and services to provide inventory information to a prospective purchaser, with no obligation to the purchaser to acquire

these goods or services; (2) for a representative of a seller of goods and services to supply inventory information to that seller; (3) for one

location to supply another location with inventory information; and (4) for an inquiry as to the availability of inventory with no obligation on the

seller of goods and services to reserve that inventory.

DLMS Note:

1. Organizations use this transaction set to request and/or report asset status and inventory balance information. Use one occurrence of this

transaction set to transmit a single or multiple transactions. 

a. DLSS functionality allows for Service/ Agency data in various record positions (rp). Data conveyed therein will require Service/Agency

identification to Defense Logistics Management Standards and incorporation into the DLMS. This transaction encompasses functionality of

MILSTRAP Document Identifier Codes (DIC) DZA, DZE, and DZF. This transaction also accommodates the functionality of Army DIC BSS

for intra-Army use and Navy DIC BA7 for intra-Navy use

2. Use a single occurrence of this transaction set to exchange transactions with a single or multiple organizations.

3. Users operating under the Defense Logistics Management Standard (DLMS) must reference the Unit of Issue and Purchase Unit

Conversion Table which can be found on the Defense Enterprise Data Standards Office (DEDSO) Web site at www.dla.mil/does/DLMS.

4. This 846I DLMS Implementation Convention contains:

a. Data associated with a DLMS enhancement which may not be received or understood by the recipient's automated processing system.

DLMS procedures may not have been developed. Components must coordinate requirements and business rules with DEDSO prior to use.

b. Data associated with an Approved Change which may not have an established implementation date. This data may not be received or

understood by the recipient's automated processing system. Components must coordinate implementation with DEDSO prior to use.

c. Defense Logistics Standard System (DLSS) data which must be retained in the DLMS for a transition period to support transaction

conversion in a mixed DLSS/DLMS environment. This data will be streamlined out once full DLMS implementation is reached. Components

may coordinate with DEDSO for early termination (or retention) of specific data requirements for users operating in a full DLMS environment.

d. Data elements which have an expanded files size above existing DLSS capability which may not be supported by the recipient's

automated processing system. Components must coordinate implementation with DEDSO prior to use.

e. Data associated with a DLMS enhancement authorized for implementation by modernized systems under DLMS migration. This data

(including expanded field sizes) should be adopted during, or subsequent to, modernization when applicable to the Component’s business

process. Prior coordination is not required. Components should ensure that inclusion of this data in a DLMS transaction does not cause

inappropriate rejection of the transaction.

f. Data required to accommodate Component-unique transaction requirements (e.g., B-series transactions). 

5. This revision to the DLMS IC incorporates Proposed DLMS Change (PDC) and Approved DLMS Change (ADC) listed. PDCs/ADCs are

DLA storage activity may prepare the 846I on behalf of the DLA ICP, with the DLA ICP RI Code SMS

entered as the ‘Message From’ activity originating the transaction. This is an interim DDKS approach in

the DLSS DIC DZA rp 67-69, which is identified as the RI Code of the ICP preparing the transaction. As

Army transitions to DLMS, the 1/N106/080 FR should reflect the true activity preparing the transaction
