RECADV — Receiving Advice
Version: 2.0 — June 2026
EDIfact Standard: EANCOM D.01B
XML: v2.0
XSD: `Azuvio-CRMconnect-EDIconnect-RECADV-v2.0.xsd`
Direction: Inbound (Partner → CRMconnect)
Trigger: Partner confirms goods receipt (NIR)
CRMconnect Module: Warehouse → Reconciliation
In response to: DESADV
The RECADV message covers three scenarios:
- Goods receipt (NIR) —
BGM_1001: 632 - Goods return —
DocumentType: R - Goods confiscation —
BGM_1001: 70E
Important
The three scenarios are processed differently in CRMconnect: NIR updates stock, Return creates a return order in the warehouse, Confiscation triggers a goods disposal workflow without physical return.
