Warehouse Shipment Identification W06
The segment is used to communicate the shipment ID number (SID). This shipment ID number represents the total contents of the materials from one destination to another destination. Often the Bill of Lading number is used, but it can be any number which is not repeated for 13 months by the supplier. The action code associated indicates an original shipment. If a replacement shipment is sent, then Deere requires the entire contents of the shipment data re-transmitted
