Frequently Asked Questions
What is an EDI 855 PO Acknowledgment?
The EDI 855 is a supplier's electronic response to an EDI 850 Purchase Order. It confirms receipt and indicates whether the supplier accepts, rejects, or proposes changes to the order terms (quantities, prices, delivery dates). The 855 helps buyers and suppliers align on order expectations before shipping.
Why do I need to process 855 acknowledgments?
Processing 855 acknowledgments ensures your purchase orders were received and accepted by suppliers. It helps you identify discrepancies early - such as quantity changes, price differences, or delivery date adjustments - before goods ship, preventing costly errors and chargebacks.
What do the acknowledgment codes mean?
Common ACK codes include: IA (Item Accepted), IB (Item Backordered), IC (Item Accepted with Changes), ID (Item Deleted), IH (Item on Hold), IR (Item Rejected). PlainEDI extracts these codes into the CSV so you can quickly filter by status.
How do I handle rejected line items in an 855?
Filter the CSV by the Acknowledgment Code column to find rejected items (code IR). Review the Reason Code column to understand why (out of stock, discontinued, price mismatch, etc.), then contact your supplier or adjust your orders accordingly.
