RE: Poll: Zero quantity invoiced

That sounds more reasonable, but I don't remember ever sending a zero qty line.

I guess it depends on what kind of back-end systems the Partner has. Sears
Canada does not require an 810. They pay based on the 856.
Others require _both_ an 856 AND an 810, which (after seeing Sears Canada)
seems redundant.

Usually that stuff goes on the ASN or some other document, like the 870.
Backorder notification & short shipments are usually done _before_ the Invoice.
I couldn't find an 810 that had both the Original Order qty and the Invoiced
Qty. Actually, I only found one, using the IT3 segment (Cimarron).
To me, the 810 is for Invoiced qtys. If nothing is shipped, nothing is
Invoiced.
