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. Inventory Control Point/owners and storage activities use this transaction set to convey changes in the disposition category of materiel.

Use one occurrence of this transaction set to transmit a single or multiple transactions.

a. The Disposition Category Update transaction is used between the DLA Disposition Services Inventory Control Point (ICP) and the DLA

Disposition Services Field Offices to communicate a change in Disposition Category. The Disposition Category Update transaction may be

sent from the DLA Disposition Services ICP to the DLA Disposition Services Field Office; or from the field office to the ICP. The Disposition

Category Update Response transaction is sent from the field office to the Disposition Services ICP. This transaction represents a DLMS

enhancement in its entirety. There are no DLSS equivalent transactions. DLA Disposition Services ICP also uses to advise the DLA

Disposition Services Field Office when a Disposition Service Accumulation Number has changed

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

Conversion Table and the Transportation Mode of Shipment Conversion Table which can be found on the Enterprise Business Standards

Office (EBSO) Web site at www.dla.mil/does/DLMS.

3. This DLMS Implementation Convention (IC) 846C contains data associated with a DLMS enhancement authorized for implementation by

DLA Disposition Services. This data should be adopted during, or subsequent, to modernization when applicable to the Defense Disposition

Services business process.

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