INTRODUCTIONThis specification provides the definition of the Quote message (QUOTES) to be used in Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) between trading partners involved in administration, commerce and transport. 1. SCOPE1.1. Functional DefinitionA message which provides potential sellers with the ability to provide price, delivery schedule, and other conditions for potential sales of goods or services. 1.2. Field of ApplicationThe UN Standard Quotation Message may be applied for both the national and international trade. It is based on universal commercial practice and is not dependent on the type of business or industry. 1.3. Principles
2. REFERENCESSee UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.6 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 1. 3. TERMS AND DEFINITIONSSee UNTDID, Part 4, Chapter 2.6 UN/ECE UNSM - General Introduction, Section 2. 4. MESSAGE DEFINITION4.1. Data Segment ClarificationThis section should be read in conjunction with the Branching Diagram and the Segment Table which indicate mandatory, conditional and repeating requirements. The following guidelines and principles apply to the whole message and are intended to facilitate the understanding and implementation of the message: All specified dates/times should be in the format 'yymmdd'/'hhmm' unless all parties involved in the transaction agree that there is a functional requirement for an alternative format. Periods should be specified as whole numbers representing the required period as indicated in the format qualifier (weeks, months, etc.) Where a choice of code or text is given only the code element should be used wherever possible. Data that is not necessary to meet the functional requirements of the message should not be included. Care must be taken that the segment qualifier in dependent segments do not conflict with the segment qualifier of the trigger segment. Free text information within the message should be avoided as this inhibits automatic processing. 4.1.1.
