Change of procedure for AAFES VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory) PO's and Program

This message is being sent to notify you of a major change to our VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory) system that is taking place effective Monday June 22, 2009 for all inbound AAFES EDI 855 VMI PO’s.  The systemic change listed below is to adhere to our standing VMI Policy, established Jan 2004.  The change to our system will impact the VMI PO numbers we issue to you in our EDI 852 Product Activity transaction set that are over 30 “Calendar” days old, based on the transmission dates you originally received them in the EDI 852 document.

Going forward, Warehouse VMI PO numbers will only have an effective 30-day usage from the day they are transmitted to you from AAFES. Once they are past the 30-days from the date they were sent out, the program will no longer accept them back in and they will be rejected if transmitted to AAFES.

Effective immediately, please discontinue using all VMI PO numbers issued to your company prior to June 1st 2009, or any PO numbers with a numbering series less than 001240XXXX. In addition, our VMI program will now be validating the PO number assigned to each supplier/partner by the PO number, AAFES internal vendor code attached to the PO number, and the specific location that the PO number was created for. When sending the EDI 855 VMI PO number back to AAFES, the above criteria must match with the PO numbers you were sent, or the system will reject the PO.

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

Thank you in advance for your continuing support of the AAFES mission and serving the best customers in the world.
