Creating an Advance Ship Notice

An Advance Ship Notice (ASN), EDI 856 Ship Notice / Manifest, can be created using the Transaction Turnaround feature. See also Editing an Advance Ship Notice and Consolidating Transactions into a Single ASN.

To create an ASN using the Transaction Turnaround feature:

  1. Select Transaction Manager > Transactions on the Foundry   Menu to launch the Transactions workspace.

  2. Choose a folder from the transactions menu box, and then select one or more transactions from the grid. Data selection methods are outlined in the Platform User Guide. 

  3. Click   Turnaround on the action bar.

  4. Select Ship Notice/Manifest as the transaction type in the Transaction Turnaround dialog and then click OK.



    Transaction Manager creates the ASN and automatically places it at the top of the Outbox folder for sending. The original transaction is moved to the Received folder. 

    If there is a   flag to the left of the record in the Outbox folder, this does not mean there are errors but only that some mandatory fields will need to be filled in before you can send the transaction.
