One of my clients supplies this kind of functionality.

1. X12 does not have a period in it  <grin>

2. I assume that you are talking about taking an 856 Ship notice/Manifest.
(I don't see an "Advance Ship Notice" anywhere in the DISA standards files.)

3. What version are you taking? 3050? 4010? 3010?

They do not currently have a web interface to this, but they may be willing
to have me put one together, if the other facilities they have don't meet
with your specs.

Contact me privately if you are interested in talking to them.
