I think clarity should overule legacy on these close calls.

I am not sure that this is a US/UK English question. Oxford gives them as
valid alternatives for the same thing but admittedly gives dispatch the
greater emphasis so I guess you are right. However, in UN/EDIFACT the
equivalent message has always been called Despatch Advice or more often
DESADV! In my experience the names ASN or Despatch Advice are the commonly
used and understood names for this functional document type. Other
thoughts?

     OK, I'll be the big bad amero-centrist here and ask -- shouldn't that
     be "dispatch" notice as opposed to "despatch" notice?

          The Scope document is now available on the LC SC webpage at the
          following link:

          http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ubl/lcsc/doc/UBLScopeStatements0-01.doc

          Let me know if there are any problems.
