EDI X12-3060 : POA 855 file structure

490 views Asked by At

I haven't any sample file for POA with multiple transaction set. As i am exploring about POA where file must contains Multiple PO and each PO contains multiple PoLines along with Ack.

Lets say i have 2 PO and each po have 2 PoLines along with Acknowledgment. I have created the POA file as what my understanding after reading the EDI tutorials, but confused whether file structure is correct or not.

ISA*00*          *00*          *ZZ*1697978        *01*1234567        *060110*0937*U*00401*000000834*0*P*>?

Yes, the ST/SE segments are nested just like you have in the example. each encloses a single 855. the GS/GE segments are also nested correctly in your example.
