If the message is an outgoing order acknowledgment, this field can be used to indicate that the message is in response to a received order change message, for example the ANSI X12 865.

If the message is an outgoing order acknowledgment, this field can be used to indicate that the message is in response to a received new order request, for example the ANSI X12 855, and the UN/EDIFACT ORDRSP.
