Confirmation Types

Suppliers communicate acceptance, rejection, or changes using confirmation types.

There is a set of commonly used confirmation types but there may be differences in the types used by different suppliers to communicate a change.

The confirmation request XSL file contains a predefined list of commonly used confirmation types documented in this table. You can modify this list to add supplier specific types.

See the Export the Message Transformation Package section for information about how to download the XSL file for the message definition.

One confirmation type is required at the header level of the confirmation (ConfirmationHeader), and you can also specify confirmation types at the confirmation item level (ConfirmationStatus). This message supports the acknowledgment or confirmation of one order:
