For Mervyns EDI Trading Partners (May 22, 2007)

"Going forward, Allowances in the summary (SAC segments) are MANDATORY in the EDI 810 transaction. Sending Allowances in the EDI 810 will allow Gross Margins to report accurately and timely within Mervyns. Sending Allowances in the EDI 810 will reduce the number of transactions received by your Accounts Receivable/Credit area. Please review the attached EDI 810 Specifications for more information.
