ScriptServe - EDI 855 Purchase Order Acknowledgment Specifications

The below documentation outlines the 855 EDI file that represents a Purchase Order Acknowledgment.

An 855 can be used to acknowledge receipt of an 850 Purchase Order from ScriptServe. It can be used to confirm final purchase price and quantity of each line item. You can also use your 855 to provide expected shipping dates for the order.

Your 855 Purchase Order Acknowledgment

Here are example files that satisfy ScriptServe's requirements for 855 EDI files:

855_example (AC).edi - Accept order with changes

855_example (AD).edi - Accept order

Note: if you provide us with an 832 or 856, you are likely following these requirements already:

Please provide a .edi file with a unique name for each import - a timestamp is recommended (i.e. "855_1518538502.edi").
In your FTP server please create an outbound directory in the root directory where you will drop EDI files. It can be named anything you choose.
You can drop files into the outbound FTP directory as frequently as you'd like. We scan for new files on an hourly basis.
