How to Review a Despatch Advice Message

  1. Open Purchase Order Entry

  2. Load a purchase order

    1. Confirm the supplier has the ORDERRSP configured.

    2. Confirm the order has been approved and sent to the supplier.

  3. Check if the Goods In Transit flag is set to true

  4. Check if the Override Price List flag is true on all lines

Purchase order EDI activity is recorded in the change log

  1. When the despatch advice is received without amendments

  2. When the despatch advice line is accepted without change

  3. Any discrepancies between the purchase order and its despatch advice

    1. Excluding missing lines...

Configuration

Create a new DesAdv report style

    1. Include supplier ID if multiple suppliers exist

  2. Set the report type to Custom Inbound EDI

  4. Define a Local Output Folder for the EDI file.

  5. Define the Remote FTP Folder the EDI file will be uploaded to

    1. The folder must already exist

  6. Set the Supplier that the EDI files will be sent to.
