What is an EDI 120 Vehicle Shipping Order?
An EDI 120 Vehicle Shipping Order informs the carrier about the upcoming arrival of a motor vehicle which the carrier is responsible for shipping to a specified destination, or on which the carrier has to perform a service.

An EDI 120 document is organized into data elements and segments. These segments contain the following information:
- Address information
- Location
