DELFOR KANBAN JIT Call-off transaction
TAE will use the standard DELFOR EDI message to inform sellers about short-term KANBAN JIT call-off delivery instructions. In this transaction TAE will only transmit 3 week KANBAN-JIT call-off information, which are shipping relevant. TAE expect some of this information to be populated in the DESADV message. Therefore, please note the reference information in the DESADV. TAE will send for each line item to be shipped: Material reference number (article number) Purchase order reference (scheduling agreement number and item) Individual JIT Call information (JIT Call-off number and item).
DESADV EDI Transaction
The DESADV message will be used by the seller to inform the receiver about goods dispatched. TAE requires certain information to be populated in the DESADV transaction from the suppliers, based on the DELFOR KANBAN JIT Call-off information. TAE requires a total quantity per item (material reference) TAE also requires for each JIT Call-off item number the individual quantities (container quantity), the total of these individual quantities equal the total material item quantity.
