Hi Tracy,

I work for an ERP software provider for plastic injection molders, many of
our customers are Tier 1 automotive suppliers. Once you get Mopar
implemented you're home free, it's the setup and making sure it all works
with your software that can be tough.

Here's a few tips that might help:

Cumulative amounts shipped will need to be accurate on your 856. Once per
year they will have you reset the cumulative amount to zero or a number they
specify as a starting point.

Sometimes they modify the release schedule by changing the prior cume
quantity in the SHP/ATH segment (rather than sending FST's that change the
release amounts).

You may need to use returnable containers, that is, keep track of the
cumulative amount you've used YTD and how many used on each shipment. If
expendable containers were used, you need to let them know how many on your
856 and specify a contract clause allowing this, to be sure you get paid for
the boxes.

I hope this helps!
