EDI-ANSI X12 :::: 997

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I am new to the EDI and getting confused with the ANSI X12 code 997. As I know that it's the Functional Acknowledgement, I cant able to get the use of it. Can any 1 please brief me abut this as we always get some errors regarding this during monitoring.

Please help me out.

Thanks.

Hey

A very simple example can be getting functional acknowledgment against Purchase Orders.

I recently worked on interface where the Business partner was sending us the purchase Orders(EDI 850) and we were sending back functional acknowledgment(EDI 997) stating them that we got their purchase order successfully and the data is in correct format.

Similarly you can get 997 against 810,860,820,830 etc

Thanx
