2.6.4. In<strong>for</strong>mation Flow Description<br />

1. Purchase Order / Delivery instruction<br />

Delivery to logistics centre<br />

36<br />

MIST Working Group, version 2001<br />

This is the in<strong>for</strong>mation send by the consignee to the consignor, to order goods <strong>for</strong> a certain<br />

expected delivery time. This can be done by using a new purchase order or by giving<br />

delivery instruction (<strong>for</strong>ecast) on an existing order.<br />

For example, “We order the products X, Y and Z <strong>for</strong> the <strong>for</strong>ecast delivery period October<br />

1999.”<br />

If EDI is used, this will be done by the message ORDERS <strong>for</strong> a new order, or by the message<br />

DELFOR <strong>for</strong> <strong>for</strong>ecast delivery instructions on an existing order.<br />

2. Purchase Order Confirmation / Delivery instruction response<br />

The ordering of goods, can be confirmed by the consignor to the consignee.<br />

To in<strong>for</strong>m the logistic centre a copy of the confirmation can be send. The confirmation can be<br />

done by using a purchase order response if the ordering was done by using an order, or can be<br />

done by using a delivery instruction response.<br />

For example, “We confirm your order of the products X, Y and Z <strong>for</strong> October 1999.”<br />

If EDI is used, this will be done by the message ORDRSP <strong>for</strong> an order response, or by using<br />

the message DELFOR as a delivery instruction response.<br />

Based on the specification given in the Purchase order or he Delivery instruction, the<br />

consignee will arrange the transportation of the goods from the consignor to the logistic<br />

centre/warehouse. This despatch to the logistic centre will be controlled by the consignee as<br />

specified in scenario 1.<br />

If automatic identification is used <strong>for</strong> transport purposes, the logistic centre can produce<br />

another label giving the unique number to the transport unit to support the internal handling at<br />

the warehouse. In this case he has to keep a unique link between his number and the initial<br />

license plate number provided by the consignor. The original label, produced <strong>for</strong> the delivery<br />

to the logistic centre, is usually used <strong>for</strong> the delivery to the consignee.<br />

3. Commercial Invoice<br />

Invoicing<br />

When the traditional way of invoicing is used, the consignor will invoice the consignee <strong>for</strong><br />

the goods delivered, based on the despatch confirmation.<br />

If EDI is used, this will be done via the INVOIC message.<br />

If the self-billing system <strong>for</strong> invoicing is used between the consignor and the consignee, the<br />

consignee will create self-billing invoices based on the reception of goods during a certain<br />

period.
