This data element is used to identify the characteristics of a line item in user coded form. As no EDIFACT code list exists for this data element codes should be from the EANCOM code list or be allocated depending on the requirements of the user. Should it not be possible to provide a user code in this data element and a free form characteristic description is used in data element 7036, then it is recommended that the code value 'ZZZ' be put in data element 7037 (which is mandatory). |
