Usage notes
The SAC segment currently is not used by BestBuy Canada. If this segment is included in the invoice file, the full invoice will be rejected in EDI and an email notification will be sent by the system to the email id listed for the partner during the initial EDI setup.
The SAC segment may be used in the future to capture Service Charges that BestBuy Canada accounting department and Trading Partners feel are relevant to the Invoice.
