CHAPTERS INDIGO: ISBN 13 Update

"Dear Vendors:

We would like to remind you that Indigo will begin sending a 13-digit "ISBN" ONLY on all EDI Outbound Transactions as of Jun-21-2008.

Out Bound Transactions examples:
1. 850 (Purchase Orders) outbound from Indigo to Vendors --> Only 13 digit ISBNs with an "EN" qualifier in PO1 segment
2. 860 (PO Change) outbound from Indigo to Vendors --> Only 13 digit ISBNs with an "EN" qualifier in POC segment

For EDI Inbound transactions from vendors to Indigo you may send either a 10 digit ISBN with the qualifier "IB" or a 13 digit ISBN with the qualifier "EN" or both.

Inbound Transactions examples:
1. 855 (Purchase Order Acknowledgment) --> in PO1 segment
2. 810 (Invoice) --> in IT1 segment
3. 856 (ASN) --> in LIN segment

If you have not already done so, please ensure the necessary changes are completed in your EDI systems to accept 13-digit ISBN numbers with an "EN" qualifier by Jun-21-2008.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
