EDI 880 - Grocery Products Invoice
What is an EDI 880?
A grocery supplier uses an EDI 880, also known as a Grocery Products Invoice, to bill a customer, such as a grocery store, for goods or services. The invoice may include the total amount due, an itemized list of goods and/or services with agreed-upon pricing, and payment terms.
EDI 880 documents use the x12 format established by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), a non-profit organization that oversees EDI formats in the United States.
How to use an EDI 894?
Upon receiving an EDI 875 Grocery Products Purchase Order, proceed to pick, pack, and ship the order. After delivering the shipment, send an EDI 880 to request payment from the buyer.
The buyer will acknowledge the receipt of EDI 880 by sending an EDI 997 Functional Acknowledgment. They may also review the invoice for any issues or discrepancies.
Finally, the buyer will transfer the EDI 880 document to their ERP or financial system to schedule payment. Keep in mind that in certain situations, a supplier might choose to send an EDI 857 Shipment and Billing Notice instead of an EDI 856 Advance Shipping Notice and EDI 880 Grocery Products Invoice. Check your trading partner requirements to determine the appropriate EDI transaction sets to use.
