# Sales - Delivery to XML (856, 945)

When a packing slip (also known as an advance shipping notice (ASN)) is created and posted for a sales order, it is added to the **Packing slip journal**. If an applicable document flow with direction '**Outbound**' and type '**Advance ship notice**' exists, also a record is added to the **Outbound message queue**. When this record is processed, the 'Sales - Delivery to XML' message is run. As a result, this message gets the data from the journal as defined in the outbound message queue record and creates and sends an EDI ASN message file to your customer.
