Segment Notes:
This segment is used to indicate the type and function of a message and to transmit the identifying number.

All references other than the document number DE 1004 are in the RFF segment.

DE 1001: It is of critical importance to use the appropriate document name qualifier relevant to the message. Codes 24E and 25E are to be used to explicitly indicate whether a catalogue contains only pricing information (e.g. PRI, ALC, TAX, etc.) or only technical information (e.g. IMD, MEA, HAN, etc.) and to allow application routing to take place depending on the value expressed here.

DE 1225: The message function, coded is a critical data element in this segment. It applies to all data indicated in the message. When code value '46, Provisional' is used, it is recommended that a subsequent message using code value '47, Definitive' should follow. The following definitions apply for the restricted codes:

2 = Addition - This code is used to add new or to provide information on existing products for the first time to the trading partner.

3 = Deletion  - This code is used to delete products from a partner's master file. In the case of deletion each LIN segment to be deleted must be sent in the detail section.

4 = Change - This code is used to modify any information relevant to a product already known by the trading partner. Only the segments containing modified information needs to be sent. All previously sent data in a modified segment must be provided. All occurrences (repetitions) of a modified segment must be provided (whether modified or not).

5 = Replace - The code is used to replace a previously sent message.

6 = Confirmation - This code is used when product information contained in a previous transmission is sent again for confirmation purposes.

7 = Duplicate - This code is used when the message is a duplicate of a previously generated message.

9 = Original - An original transmission of a Price/sales catalogue.

27 = Not accepted - This code is used in a PRICAT response to inform the recipient that the referenced PRICAT message was not accepted.

29 = Accepted without amendment - This code is used in a PRICAT response to inform the recipient that the referenced PRICAT message was accepted completely.

31 = Copy - This code indicates that the message is a copy of an original message that has been sent, e.g. for action or information.

46 = Provisional - This code is used to indicate that the content of the price/sales catalogue message is provisional and is subject to final approval (using code 47).

47 = Definitive - This code is used  to indicate that the content of the price/sales catalogue message is definitive.

Example :

BGM+9+PC32458+2'

Dependency Notes :

DE 3055: This data element is used with code value 9 when EAN codes are used in DE 1001.

DE 4343: This data element is used when the message sender needs an acknowledgement of the message.
