4 Introduction The Fastenal story began in 1967 when Bob Kierlin opened the very first Fastenal store, a 1,000 sq. ft. warehouse in his hometown of Winona, MN. The front desk was a salvaged wood door, and sales for the month totaled $157. Despite these humble beginnings, Kierlin believed that Fastenal would ultimately succeed by providing a level of service that would keep customers coming back. He summed up his vision with four words: Growth Through Customer Service. We realize our service isn t solely on our efforts alone; it takes many outstanding suppliers within the supply chain for Fastenal to become the company we are today. That s why we ask you to fully review the contents of these procedures with everyone within your organization. As Fastenal continues to grow, by exceeding our customers expectations for service, we want to reward those suppliers that work hard to earn our business. The information found within is essential to our business, and to our customers. Purpose Fastenal has made a significant investment in our supply chain operations which depends on our suppliers adhering to the requirements and guidelines contained within this document. This guide describes in detail Fastenal Company s requirements for EDI, packaging of products, product labeling, pallet labeling, palletizing, and routing. Basic Expectations of our Supplier partners We are partners working together to supply the best in products and service to our common customers. We will work together in a straight forward manner to accomplish this task. Accept, acknowledge, and confirm all orders per our agreement or quotation. Ship the correct product exactly as ordered no substitutions, unless previous agreed upon. Ensure the correct quantities and pricing per our agreement and purchase order. Ship from your closest possible location to the posted Ship to location on the order. Ship products accurately and on time. Open communication on any issues that might come up. 3

5 Expense Offset/Penalty program The following is a list of infractions and their associated penalties: Although it is not our intention to penalize our suppliers for petty infractions or minor mistakes, the costs associated with slowing down the process of moving your product through our supply chain, and possible errors that may occur because of not following our procedures, must be realized. The following penalties will be necessary for us to impose. Packaging/Re-packaging/Re-label Any product that needs to be bagged/re-bagged because it does not meet our packaging requirements will be done at a cost of $.30 per bag to the supplier plus a $25 setup fee. Any product that needs to be boxed/re-boxed because it does not meet our packaging requirements will be done at a cost of $.80 per box to the supplier plus a $25 setup fee. Any product that needs to be labeled/re-labeled because it does not meet our requirements will be done at a cost of $.50 per label to the supplier plus a $25 setup fee. Palletizing/Re-palletizing Any product that needs to be transferred to an in-house pallet because the pallet that was used does not meet our requirements will be done at a cost of $25 per pallet to the supplier. Any product that needs to be transferred to another pallet because it does not meet required ISPM-15 regulations will be done at a cost of $30 per pallet to the supplier. Any orders that need to be transferred to another skid because supplier palletized Corporate Purchase Orders together with Store Purchase Orders will be done at a cost of $25 per order to the supplier. Packing Slips EDI (856, GS1-128) Suppliers must ship products that contain a packing slip per order. If it does not meet these requirements a cost of $25 per order will be charged to the supplier. NON-EDI (non 856, GS1-128) Suppliers must ship products that contain a packing slip per shipping unit (pallet or carton) listing all contents of that specific container only. If it does not meet these requirements a cost of $25 per pallet/carton will be charged to the supplier. 4

6 Inaccurate Shipment Transactions Over Shipments 1. Fastenal has the option of accepting or rejecting over-shipments from suppliers. If Fastenal rejects over-shipment, the supplier will be notified and be requested to provide disposition of over-shipment within 2 business days. If Supplier does not provide disposition within 2 business days, Fastenal reserves the right to immediately return merchandise to supplier at the supplier s expense. Under Shipments 1. Any visible shortages detected at the time of pick-up or delivery will be noted. Either the supplier can re-ship shorted merchandise or Fastenal will deduct from the suppliers payment. 2. Any concealed shortages discovered after the time of pick-up or delivery will be documented by Fastenal at the time of the receiving process, in which Fastenal will notify the supplier. Either the supplier can re-ship shorted merchandise at no cost or Fastenal will deduct from the suppliers payment. Mis-Shipments 1. Fastenal has the option of accepting or rejecting mis-shipments from suppliers. If Fastenal rejects mis-shipments, the supplier will be notified and be requested to provide disposition of mis-shipment within 2 business days. Damages If Supplier does not provide disposition within 2 business days, Fastenal reserves the right to immediately return merchandise to supplier at the supplier s expense. 1. Unless agreed upon, Fastenal will refuse to accept at the time of pick-up or delivery any damaged or defective merchandise. 2. Any concealed damaged of defective merchandise after the time of pick-up or delivery will be documented by Fastenal at the time of the receiving process, in which Fastenal will notify the supplier at that time. Upon notification, Fastenal will reserve the right to either have the supplier re-ship product at suppliers expense or deduct from supplier s payment. If supplier wants to have damaged product back, Fastenal will ship back at supplier s expense. 5

7 Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) Fastenal has partnered with SPS Commerce for our EDI initiative. Suppliers are required to test and certify existing EDI forms through SPS Commerce but are not required to purchase SPS Commerce products if existing software is compatible and meets Fastenal requirements. Outlined below is a brief introduction to our program and expectations. We appreciate partnering with you on this effort and look forward to your successful testing completion. For additional information, or questions concerning EDI requirements, please contact clientservices@spscommerce.com. Or reference the Fastenal information web portal on Login: fastenalvendor Password: spscommerce Fastenal s EDI transactions EDI 850 Purchase Order EDI 855 Purchase Order Acknowledgment EDI 753 Request for Routing Instructions EDI 754 Routing Instructions EDI 856 Ship Notice/Manifest (a.k.a. ASN / Advance Ship Notice) with corresponding GS1-128 Barcode Label. EDI 810 Invoice EDI 820 Remittance Advise (NOT MANDATORY, BUT AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST) EDI 824 Application Advise (OR ADDRESS REQUIRED) EDI 846 Inventory Inquiry EDI 997 Functional Acknowledgement Inbound/Outbound Content Testing with SPS Commerce An SPS Commerce representative will work with you directly. SPS Commerce will guide you through the required test cases that will contain supplier-specific content information. The testing will include all transactions mentioned previously. An SPS analyst will work with you to coordinate the activities for each test phase. The SPS analyst will also be your primary point of contact with any questions that may arise during testing. Once you are contacted by an SPS analyst, Fastenal s expectation is the submission of the SPS Commerce contract, the Trading Partner Agreement (TPA), as well as all successful EDI testing will be completed in a four week time frame. Once the test 850 Purchase Orders have been transmitted to the supplier from SPS Commerce on behalf of Fastenal, the supplier can begin transmitting the necessary transactions to SPS Commerce. SPS Commerce will process the transactions, and the results of the transaction will be posted on a web-based portal. You will be provided with a URL, username and password to access the web based portal via each time testing results are posted to the site for your review. A transaction will be deemed successful when an error free document posts to the testing web portal. Throughout the testing process, suppliers will have the ability to view the status of their progress. The testing web portal is operational 24/7, and has unlimited testing capability during the 3 week testing period which starts on the day you get your first test PO. To view testing results once logged in using information provided in the test results o Click on the EDI TESTING box in the center of the web portal home page. o Within the EDI Testing Status, click on Fastenal. o Click on each transaction to obtain test results. 6

8 Another Option: Webforms For those suppliers that do not have their own EDI system, and choose not to pursue EDI software, this option only requires an internet connection. A SPS representative will be happy to discuss this low-price alternative in more detail. Keys to Successful Testing Refer to the Fastenal EDI specifications found in the web portal address on a previous page. Refer to the FAQ s document found in the above web portal Do not send segments that are not included within the Fastenal s EDI specifications. Completion of Testing and Certification SPS Commerce will notify Fastenal Company once you successfully complete your testing. A Fastenal ecommerce support analyst (ecommercevendor@fastenal.com) will contact you, informing you of when our Corporate and Store purchasers will have the ability to send you 850 purchase orders. They will also be providing the location code you should use for the N104 for the RE relation on the 810 invoice and the location code to use in N104 for the SF relation on the 856 ASN.

9 Accepting and Processing Fastenal Purchase Orders All orders received via any method (EDI 850, , Fax, Phone) from Fastenal, are only valid if they have a valid Fastenal P.O. number and all appropriate elements. ALL Fastenal purchase orders must be acknowledged and confirmed to the contact listed on the purchase order document utilizing the same communication method as the order was sent. No product or pricing alterations will be accepted unless authorized by order contact. Schedule shipment of product from your CLOSEST shipping location in relation to the Ship To location as posted on the purchase order. Make sure all order notes are understood and followed before processing orders. A given part number on the SAME Corporate purchase order, MUST all have the SAME country of origin. If you are unable to fulfill such a request, you MUST contact the purchaser to issue another purchase order for the balance. Expiration Date / Shelf Life Shelf life is the amount of recommended saleable days between the date of manufacture and the last recommended sale, or expiration date. All product shelf life information is provided by the supplier on the item during the time of item activation. You may contact your product manager for a listing of your items with a limited shelf life on file. Products with a shelf life expectation of 12 months or less must have at least 85% of the shelf life remaining at the time of receipt. Products with a shelf life of more than 12 months must have at least 75% of the shelf life remaining at the time of receipt. Please contact your buyer prior to, or once you receive a purchase order if you know you cannot meet this requirement. Product Packaging Requirements Fastenal desires to partner with our suppliers to provide the best quality products and service for our joint customer base. This can only be accomplished if products are packaged to fully and completely protect the goods during shipment and provide efficient means for traceability and delivery. The following will describe our minimum requirements for packaging and identification of goods accepted by Fastenal for sale. Packaging Expectations/Guidelines Suppliers are encouraged to offer packaging which minimizes or eliminates the use of disposable containers; is made from recycled content; contains a minimum of 25% by weight of post-consumer materials; and /or meets or exceeds the minimum post-consumer content level for respective packaging in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Comprehensive Procurement Guidelines. Suppliers are encouraged to provide packaging that does not contain inks, dyes, pigments, adhesives, stabilizers, or any other additives to which any lead, cadmium, mercury or hexavalent chromium has been included as an element during manufacture or distribution in such a way that the sum of the concentrations levels of such lead, cadmium, mercury or hexavalent chromium exceed the following concentration level: 100 parts per million by weight (0.01%). Hazmat Product Any supplier shipping any chemical must comply with 49CFR parts , plus any other governmental regulator with regards to shipping papers, marking, labeling, and proper packaging requirements. In addition, the supplier must include the following certification on their shipping paper: This is to certify that the above named materials are properly classified, described, packaged, marked, and labeled, and is in proper condition for transportation according to the applicable regulations of the Department of Transportation. 8

10 Product Labeling Requirements Product Barcodes *Indicate which bar code(s) you are/will support on the Supplier Agreement (signature sheet) Fastenal will NOT accept any competitor s part numbers on merchandise sold to Fastenal UPC A Barcode (Universal Product Code) All products that are UPC barcoded will need to be cross referenced to specific Fastenal part numbers. Fastenal will need to know the each, package and case pack UPC numbers and whether the UPC numbers are UPC A (12 digits GTIN-12) or I2 of 5 (14 digits GTIN-14) where applicable. All levels of packaging must contain a UPC code. Labels must also be human readable. Each level of packaging must have its own unique GTIN barcode. EAN 13 Barcode (International Article Number) Formerly referred to as the European Article Number, this code is used worldwide for marking/identifying products. All products that are EAN barcoded will need to be cross referenced to specific Fastenal part numbers. Fastenal will need to know the each; package and case pack EAN numbers. All levels of packaging must contain an EAN code. Labels must also be human readable. Each level of packaging must have its own unique GTIN barcode. JAN-13 Barcode (Japanese Article Number) Also known as JAN codes, this symbology is mostly used in Japan, and is much the same as the EAN-13 barcodes. For JAN barcodes the first two digits MUST be 45 or 49 which identifies Japan. All products that are JAN barcoded will need to be cross referenced to specific Fastenal part numbers. Fastenal will need to know the each; package and case pack JAN numbers. All levels of packaging must contain a JAN code. Labels must also be human readable. Each level of packaging must have its own unique GTIN barcode. Fastenal package label code 93 (see Appendix 1 & 2) Any non UPC, EAN, or JAN bar-coded packages will need to have a Fastenal package label attached: Type 1 label = Fastenal 5 digit part number and quantity of 1 to 99,999 Type 2 label = Fastenal part number more than 5 digits and quantity of 1 to 9,999 Labels must also be human readable. 9

11 Note: If this is the first time you have shipped Fastenal this line of product, sample labels from the packages will be required for approval prior to shipment. Please forward an example of the barcoded label to our SOP Team at They will verify whether the label is adequate, scans properly, and has met all labeling requirements. Each carton must have an item level UPC, EAN, JAN or Fastenal package label, Fastenal requires appropriate BARCODE identification labeling on all levels of shippable and sellable units Piece, Package, and Case 10

12 Country of Origin Labeling Requirements The primary reason for identifying the Country of Origin (COO) on your packaging is to address trade regulations (importing/exporting products). The primary regulation concerning trade and marking of COO of the products is the Tariff Act of As noted, products that are imported/ exported must be properly labeled to ensure that these trade regulations are satisfied and appropriate tariffs are paid. A second area of regulation associated with the COO of a product is various Acts or treaties granting favorable treatment of a product produced in a certain country. The primary regulations or treaties are Buy America/Buy American Act and NAFTA/CAFTA (demanded by Fastenal s customers). With regard to consumer protection regulations, there are certain standards imposed by the Federal Trade Commission relative to the COO of a product. The Made in the USA is one such standard related to the product produced primarily in the United States and claims by a distributor/seller that the product is Made in the USA. This regulation is based on truth in advertising regulations and is primarily in place to ensure that products are not misrepresented to consumers. In the United States, the marking statute, section 304, Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1304) requires that, unless excepted, every article of foreign origin (or its container) imported into the U.S. shall be marked with its Country or Origin. All packages/products must display the COO not just imported products. Fastenal in order to standardize COO declaration requires that this be clearly stated by suppliers on all levels of packaging. This regulation is based on truth in advertising regulations and is primarily in place to ensure that products are not misrepresented to consumers. This will be audited. Products missing COO information will be non-conformed in the distribution center until COO is verified which may result in delays of servicing customers and decreases in hub efficiency. Relabeling charges are addressed on page 4 of the Fastenal Standard Operating Procedures manual. Expense Offset/Penalty Program (See page 4) Any product that needs to be bagged/re-bagged because it does not meet our packaging or packaging quantity requirements will be done at a cost of $.30 per bag to the supplier plus a $25 setup fee. Any product that needs to be boxed/re-boxed because it does not meet our packaging or packaging quantity requirements will be done at a cost of $.80 per box to the supplier plus a $25 setup fee. Any product that needs to be labeled/re-labeled because it does not meet our requirements will be done at a cost of $.50 per label to the supplier plus a $25 setup fee. 11

13 Pallet Requirements In-house pallet See Appendix 3 for all of the dimensional standards for our required pallet this is referred to as our inhouse pallet. (40 x32 ) Pallet dimensional requirements vary per supplier depending on size of product. *Requirement indicated on Supplier Agreement (signature sheet) Note: We will accept a 4-way pallet if the runners are positioned accordingly and the dimensional footprint is the same as the in-house pallet. No metal pallets will be accepted. Expense Offset/Penalty Program (See page 4) Any product that needs to be transferred to an in-house pallet because the pallet that was used does not meet our requirements will be done at a cost of $25 per pallet to the supplier. Pallet Weights Each pallet must not exceed the maximum weight of 2,050 pounds including pallet and product. Please also make sure that the wood used to manufacture the pallet is capable of supporting the weight of the product being shipped. Pallet Wrapping We request that our pallets be shrink-wrapped, preferably by using a machine. When necessary, corner-bracing should be applied before the shrink-wrap (so that the shrink-wrap will hold all cornerbracing in place). In addition, we do not require a wooden cover on top of our pallet. It is our experience that if corner-bracing is applied properly (shrink-wrapped to the pallet) and the pallet is braced properly in the shipment container, than pallets can be double stacked with no problems. Items that are shipped in kegs or barrels need to be securely nylon banded together and to the shipping pallet as securely as possible to prevent movement during transit. Pallet Treatment Requirement For all purchase orders that cross an international border, all wood packaging shall comply with ISPM-15 regulations governing phytosanitary measures including treating (heat treating, methyl bromide) and certification stamp (as of this print, US/Canada crossings are exempt, but suppliers must adhere as regulations change). ISPM 15 directly addresses the need to treat wood materials of a thickness greater than 6mm, used to ship product between countries. Its main purpose is to prevent the international transport and spread of disease and insects that could negatively affect plants or ecosystems. ISPM affects all wood packaging material (pallets, crates, dunnages, etc.) requiring that they be debarked and then heat treated or fumigated with methyl bromide and stamped or branded, with a mark of compliance. This mark of compliance is colloquially, known as the wheat stamp. Please refer to the Revised Lacey Act for complete details at Please Note: If an order is going to cross an international border a comment will appear on the purchase order stating: This Purchase Order will cross an international border, all wood packaging shall comply with ISPM-15 regulations governing phytosanitary measures including treating (heat treating, methyl bromide) and certification stamp. (US/Canada crossings exempt) Expense Offset/Penalty Program (See page 4) Any product that needs to be transferred to another pallet because it does not meet required ISPM-15 regulations will be done at a cost of $30 per pallet to the supplier. 12

14 Pallet Stacking / Building: Each pallet must be built in such a way to protect the product and provide strength to ensure successful shipment regardless of road condition. Cases must be stacked to avoid misalignment for maximum stacking strength (see following Illustration). Bags should be built on a heavy-duty pallet by stacking them in interlocked layers. A corrugated sheet must be placed on the pallet under bottom layer of bags to protect bags from flowing between the deck board gaps and to protect the bags from nails. Unit loads must be top capped and stretch wrapped for additional stability (see illustration below). 13

15 Special Labeling for National Promotions If you are notified that you have products in any of our National promotions, you will be required to attach the following label to the orders we specify. Please be sure to place the indicated label (see Appendix 4) on the side facing the forklift operator when unloading, and one of the adjacent sides. This will allow operators to decide where the product is to be placed in the distribution center as it unloads your order. Approximate size of this label should be 6 x 9 with black print and pink background color. 14

16 EDI TRADING PARTNERS One of the most critical areas to increase the efficiencies of moving your product through our system to the customer is the proper use of the EDI 856 document and corresponding GS1-128 labeling on each shipment. For this reason we ve chosen to detail this section with pictures and graphics to illustrate as best we could. Please do not hesitate to contact us at with any questions you may have. Advance Ship Notice (EDI- 856) Instructions The EDI Advanced Ship Notice/Manifest Transaction Set (856 or ASN) should be used to list the contents and details of a shipment of goods. Proper use of this document will allow the most efficient means of receiving product and moving it through our distribution system. Fastenal requires the use of all levels of the ASN document nesting levels to communicate the physical shipment. Building nested containers allows the maximum amount of product to be received with the least amount of actual scans or touches. Proper use of the documents will allow for efficiency and accuracy. Physical components of this document should include: order information part numbers physical characteristics type of packaging markings & id numbers (SSCC-18) carrier information configuration of goods within the transportation equipment & containers Each electronic ASN document sent by a supplier and received by Fastenal is in reference to a single shipment. There can be one or multiple shipments on a truck but if multiple shipments are present, each separate Shipment would have a separately associated ASN document. Each shipment will contain one or multiple orders and an order can comprise of one or many cartons The transaction set enables the sender to describe the contents and configuration of a shipment in a high level of detail and provides an ordered flexibility to convey information. As the supplier and sender of this transaction, you are responsible for correctly detailing and communicating the contents of each shipment. When the merchandise is packaged and shipped or Will Called, the ASN EDI document must be immediately sent and not batched for a later or nightly release. The ASN tells Fastenal what is specifically contained in the shipment, down to the level of what merchandise is in each carton. Pick-Pack Document Transmission described as multiple quantities of one or more products in a carton or shipping container. It is important to understand that Fastenal will only accept this type of document transmission and it has a specific order that the document segments must be received. (see page 16) ASN document transmissions to Fastenal can only use the Pick-Pack order method. A pick-pack style ASN is ordered STOPI (Ship, Tare, Order, Pack, Item). (A Pick-pack has one or many items per carton) 15

17 The following diagram is a Pick-Pack example. Fastenal prefers that the maximum level of nested data is sent in the document transmission. Naturally, the more data we have, the more efficiently your product will flow through our system. Hierarchical Levels: The Shipment Level: contains data that reflects all of the goods being transported. The EDI 856 will reflect what is on the Truck Load or Less Than Truck Load shipment, Where are they being shipped from, Who shipped them, Ship date, Total number of cartons, Total shipment weight, Shipment number, and Bill of lading number of the truck paperwork. The Tare level: is usually a pallet full of boxes that has been sealed with plastic (shrink) wrap. This can include one or several orders, but can NEVER exceed the size of 1 pallet. If multiple pallets are shipped, a separate Tare level will be needed for each pallet. This information will correspond to the single pallet GS1-128 label with a unique SSCC-18 bar code per pallet, A Tare level should have the Pack and Item level information for that single pallet nested and include all data for product on that pallet. The Order level: There can be multiple Order levels on a single ASN. Each Order level corresponds to a purchase order from the trading partner. The order level includes: Purchase order number, Order date, Ordering store or location, Department number, and Total number of cartons. The Pack level: is on the individual cartons of the shipment but can also be at the pallet level when the pallet only contains one order of one part number. This level contains information about the individual cartons and contains nothing more than a unique SSCC-18 bar code with item level data nested under this level. If more than one carton is shipping, then a separate pack level is required for each carton, each with their own unique SSCC-18 bar code.0 The Item level: contains information about the specific merchandise in that shipment container. This data includes: Fastenal part number, vendor part number, UPC, country of origin, quantity. 16

18 Overview of Labeling Requirements for EDI 856 Shipments using GS1-128 Shipping labels: The GS1-28 label is an industry standard shipping label. Formerly known as the UCC-128 or EAN-128, it is used to tie the electronic data from the ASN to the physical containers (pallet/carton) that it represents. An integral part of the GS1-128 is the SSCC-18 barcode. The SSCC-18 works as a license plate for a container and is used to retrieve data from an ASN associated with that SSCC-18. Fastenal uses the SSCC-18 to move product onto and off of our trucks, cross-dock containers destined for other locations, and receive the container at the final destination. It is important to note that in order for the SSCC-18 to function properly, it must be unique for each container (box/pallet). Each SSCC-18 must also be included in the ASN transmission so that it can be loaded and utilized when the containers reach our facilities. Repeating the same SSCC- 18 on multiple containers, or not including all SSCC-18s on the ASN does not work and can cause mis-shipments and delays in delivering product to our customers. Each pallet must have a single, unique GS1-128 shipping label attached to the outer wrap on the side of the pallet facing the forklift operator. The SSCC-18 number for each pallet should be sent at the TARE level of the ASN (pg 16) When palletizing multiple parts, multiple POs, or shipping loose cartons, each master carton must have a single, unique GS1-128 shipping label attached to the largest flat side of the carton. The SSCC-18 number for each carton should be sent at the PACK level of the ASN (pg 16). GS1-128 Shipping Label Specifications The GS1-128 shipping label will be approximately 4 x6 in size, portrait orientation, and display the following information: This label physically ties the carton to the EDI document. The following is an example of a label and what each zone should signify. (See page 18) Zone A Ship From Zone B Ship To Zone C Postal code Zone D Carrier information Zone E Purchase order number(s) / Pallet or Carton count Zone F Ship date Zone G ASN type Zone H SSCC-18 barcode 17

19 GS1-128 Shipping Label SSCC-18 Barcode The SSCC-18 barcode on the label comes from the MAN segments of the ASN. This 20 digit number ties the information nested under the MAN segment to the physical carton/pallet that it represents. The parts of the barcode are generated based on the descriptions below. Application Identifier- This will always be 00 Extension Digit Used to extend the serial number, or to identify the type of SSCCC GS1 Company Prefix a number assigned to your company by GS1. Similar to your UPC Prefix. Serial Number Used to make each label unique. Check Digit Ensures the barcode is correctly made. 18

20 UPS Shipping Label, incorporating the SSCC-18 barcode If you are shipping an order via UPS, we will accept incorporating the SSCC-18 barcode into your UPS shipping label (see BOTTOM barcode below). You can contact your UPS World Ship account representative to add the SSCC-18 to the bottom of your label. 19

21 Packing Slip Requirements 1. EVERY Purchase Order must have a packing slip with the product. 2. You MUST every packing slip with a Corporate Purchase Order number to the following address: packingslips@fastenal.com The packing slip attachment must be in either a.pdf or.tif format The packing slip attachment must be named with the corresponding Fastenal Purchase Order number nothing else. (POnumber.pdf) Send only one PO per document 3. your packing slip(s) either before or at the time the order ships. All packing lists must contain the following information at a minimum: (See Appendix 5) Purchase order number Ship to address Shipping date Order date Supplier part number Fastenal part number Quantity ordered Quantity shipped Expense Offset/Penalty Program (See Page 4) EDI (856, GS1-128) Suppliers must ship product that contain a packing slip per order. If it does not meet these requirements a cost of $25 per order will be charged to the supplier. Loose Master Carton Shipments Must Have product labeled appropriately on all levels of shippable and sellable units with approved bar coding (see pages 9 and 10). Transmit your EDI 856 document the same day of shipment, either prior to, or at the time of shipment departure. Apply your GS1-128 label on the largest flat side of your carton Have a Packing Slip (s) attached, for each purchase order shipped.

31 NON EDI PARTNERS IF YOU ARE PROVIDING THE GS1-128 SHIPPING LABEL AND TRANSMITTING THE 856 DOCUMENT GO TO PAGE 15 (EDI 856 PARTNERS). If you are currently NOT an EDI trading partner, supplying Fastenal with an 856, Advance Ship Notice with the corresponding GS1-128 shipping label, we consider this a temporary situation, and provide the following instructions during your transition to this technology.

If the multiple purchase orders are going to multiple destinations, than each carton must have its own packing slip. 2. All Packing Slips Must be attached to the product. Examples: A shipment of 3 purchase orders shipped in 6 cartons going to 3 different destinations requires 6 separate packing slips, 1 attached to each carton, detailing the contents specific to each carton. A shipment of 1 purchase order shipped in 4 cartons that are nylon banded together with nylon strapping requires 1 packing slip detailing the contents of the 4 packages. A shipment of 1 purchase order shipped on three different pallets requires 3 packing slips, 1 attached to each pallet, specific to what is contained on the given pallet ONLY. 3.

If it does not meet these requirements a cost of $25 per pallet/carton will be charged to the supplier. 30

32 Shipping Label The following generic shipping label will be approximately 4 x6 in size, portrait orientation, and display the following information: Ship from Ship to Carrier name Number of Pallets, Cartons Purchase order number(s) Ship date Generic Ship Label From: Supplier Name Ship To: Name Supplier Address 1 Address 1 Supplier Address 2 Address 2 Supplier Address 3 Address 3 Carrier Name Pallet and/or Carton Number and Total Number of Pallets (I.E.

If you are shipping hazardous materials, you must follow all pertinent DOT hazardous shipping paperwork procedures. 36
