RE: ISA /GS ID
Singh,
You must ask your trading partner for their ISA and GS IDs.
To establish your company's IDs, you have several choices. In the US, I
have found that the most popular values are DUNS number and Telephone
number. Trucking companies also use their SCAC code. Your accounts payable
manager will know your DUNS number. Depending on which value you elect to
use, you should chose the corresponding qualifier for the ISA. 01 for DUNS,
12 for telephone, 02 for SCAC. For the full list, reference your X12
standards manual. If you don't have one of these on CD or hard copy, you
are at a real disadvantage. In my opinion, you should go right out and get
one - in the version that most of your trading partners are using.
Remember that the ISA ID and the GS ID you select don't have to be the same.
But be aware that there are some trading partners who are incapable of
processing your documents unless they do match. So my suggestion to save
yourself trouble is to make them match.
If you are using a VAN, you must coordinate your choces of identifiers with
them, and of course, you must communicate your choices to your trading
partners. If you are using more than one VAN, you will want multiple
identifiers, because the VANs cross-reference one identifier to one VAN.
There is a lot to learn with EDI. For me, the Standards manual, partners'
implementation guides, the EDI-L list and paying attention to what is going
on has brought me a long way. Good luck.
