Advance shipping notice

An advance ship notice or advance shipping notice (ASN) is a notification of pending deliveries, similar to a packing list. It is usually sent in an electronic format and is a common EDI document.

ASN enables external systems to receive information about shipments. The ASN document is a delivery confirmation and is used to notify a customer about an expected delivery. The ASN is typically generated based on information that is available when a shipment has left the warehouse, and it can be triggered when you post a packing slip in Microsoft Dynamics AX.
