ANSI X12 xsd of edi 110 and edi 214 document

Hello All,
Pl can anyone of you tell me from where to get XSDs of
edi 110 and edi 214 document (ANSI X12).
thanks, in advance
Sharada

HI,
Usually when u buy a Seeburger license you need to import the Seeburger software component version in IR and once you immport that you will get the Std seeburger XSD in external definition.
Thnx

  • EDI 821 and EDI 823 field mapping file and basic IDOC type and message type

    Hi All,
    We are facing some issues regarding EDI 821 and EDI 823 file mappings.
    We are mapping EDI 821 and EDI 823 transactions into SAP using IDOCs. Currently we are using the below entries
    EDI 823 - Lock Box
    Basic IDOC type - FINSTA01
    Message type - FINSTA
    Process Code  - FINS
    The problem is we are able to get the IDOC into SAP with status red and the various errors were due to not able to create the lockbox entry in SAP and once we got yellow status also but the lock box entry was not created and the errors are like No Conversions,no header etc.
    EDI 821 -
    Basic IDOC type - PEXR2002
    Message type - PAYEXT OR REMADV
    Process Code  - PEXC OR REMA
    We are facing the same problem here also and the internal payment order is not creating in SAP and IDOC was generated with yellow status and red status.
    We are trying different combinations but nothing is working so far.
    I need the following things to proceed furthur.
    1)Are the IDOC , Message and process codes are correct that I am using now for both EDI 821 and EDI 823
    2)If those are not correct, can you please let me know the correct entries
    3) Please provide me the field mapping if any one of you have worked earlier for both the above IDOC and message type or new ones and we have one field mapping now but if you can send it to me then  I can re check it.
    4) Do we have to create any configuraion or customizing in SAP to create the IDOC in green status and if so please let me know the customizing steps and procedures for both EDI 821 and EDI 823.
    thanks in advance for all your help.
    Please let me know if my question is not clear.
    Thanks,
    Ramesh.

    Hi Ramesh,
    I believe you are using those interfaces with the business partner type as Bank, Whatever idoc type, message type and process code you have used are perfectly correct.
    First of all did you enable your bank for EDI, the house bank has to be EDI enabled first then only your idoc's can be processed, talk to your fi functional consultant and he might help you.
    Are you can give me the exact error and i can help you as well.
    Thanks,

  • EDI 850 and EDI 855 differences

    Hi All,
    We are currently receiving a PO Via EDI-850 and Sales document is posted. Due to the internal setting based on several scenario's either the material or qty gets changed eg Material determination. Price also what they send on the EDI and current condition record rate may be different.  Sales orders are created based on the condition record.  Upon saving the order it sends the Order Acknowledgement ie 855. 
    Any standard  SAP functionality is available to mark the differences on the PO received via EDI 850, before sending the 855 back to the customers.
      Your feedback is apperciated.
    Thanks,

    Hi Shobha,
    Maybe you could create requirement routine for the output type of Order Acknowledgement to check whether the PO data consist with SO data and stop the output process if the data doesn[t consist.
    Then you could enter another output type without the requirement check manually on the sales order after getting acknowledge of the differences.
    Hope it helps.
    Best regards,

  • MM06E001 User exits for EDI inbound and outbound purchasing documents

    Hi
    I am using  enhancement MM06E001 to transfer PO data
    via idoc type      ORDERS05.
    I am creating PO via transaction ME21N.When ever i save the PO the data should go via this IDOC type
    When we create PO the Standard long text data maintained at header level is tranferred via Segment E1EDKT1 and E1EDKT2.
    The issue is that at header level i have created new PO header  text.
    This new PO header text data is not identified in this enhancement
    thats why  i  am not able to send this  data via
    idoc using enhancement MM06E001.
    Kindly help me on how to pass the  text data using Idoc
    via enhancement MM06E001.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Chetan

    Hello,
             I believe you are writing the Code in the Exit EXIT_SAPLEINM_002 in which you are manually populating the Header Text while it is not required for the Standard Segments like E1EDKT1 & E1EDKT2. If there is any Text maintained in the PO, it will be automatically populated in the Header Segment E1EDKT1 & E1EDKT2.
            Put a Break Point in this Customer Function and check if the Data is already being filled into these Segments in the Table INT_EDIDD.

  • ANSI X12 EDI 850 V4010 - REF Field length Increase

    Hi,
    The standarad EDI V4010 definiation contains Segment:REF, Field:127, MaxLength:30 (ISA.GS.ST.REF:127), partner sending a EDI data with more than 30 characters for this field. As per their EDI guide lines the MaxLength allows upto 50 chars for this field.
    Have changed the field length from 30 to 50 chars in ANSI X12 850 V4010 message structure and re-generated EDI To XML mapping.When test the mapping in BIC tool, the EDI file is getting converted to EDI XML when the field value is more than 30 chars i.e upto 50 chars. Also Tested by giving more than 50 chars value for this field and it's failed to convert in BIC mapping tool saying 'The length of the field value is too big'.
    As the change working in BIC tool, generated sda file and deployed on PI QA system. While test the change after .sda file deployment the change of Field Length is not reflecting and it's only allowing upto 30 chars only., and more than 30 chars data for this field EDI files are failing.
    As the change working alone in BIC tool fine and not reflecting thefield length after sds file deployment. Any ideas about this issue and how to handle this requirement.
    Thanks
    Veera

    Hi John,
    If you see the documentation what you have given :
    Parameters:
    on: delimiters at the end do not appear
    off: delimiters at the end appear
    it clearly says the parameter is used for the delimiters, but not for truncating length of the fields in Seeburger.
    I'm not sure if you've ever used the BIC Mapping tool and what I'm really looking for is someone with experience in this area to give a solution that works for this question:
    By the way I have used the seeburger and this requirement we have done within XI because we have done all the rules within XI not in seeburger. But I will give a try with this requirement and will try to update you. Until unless I work with any of the issue I will not suggest. Even If I didnt I will try and then will suggest. Dont get me wrong.
    Cheers,

  • Xml to EDI without  any  EDI adapter!

    Hi ,
    can we do  <b>xml to EDI</b> without any EDI adapter like SEEBURGER or GENTRAN?
    and just with Conversion agent?
    if so ,would it be a xml to file scenario?please explain little about the process.
    thank you,
    regards,
    Babu

    Amir,
    I was trying to add some comments what I felt.
    I mean,with Conversion Agent we cant send or recieve EDI documents. and we can use it for just to get the structure of the EDI document as XSD with Conversion Agent which we want to use in mapping.And once we have structure for the EDI document we can use a file adapter and can generate XML files.
    And we do mapping only, if we don't have predelivered mapping( Seeburger provides some mappings for standard document sets).
    I am sorry ,if I am still unclear.
    and to your comments above
    >>"you may also use conversion agent from Itemfiled,it much like seeburger and i guess now its owned by SAP itself"
    Seeburger has lot of features than Conversion agent.
    Conversion agent just can get xsd from EDI structure and EDI structure from xsd,correct?

  • EDI-ANSI X12 :::: 997

    Hi All,
    I am new to the EDI and getting confused with the ANSI X12 code 997. As I know that it's the Functional Acknowledgement, I cant able to get the use of it. Can any 1 please brief me abut this as we always get some errors regarding this during monitoring.
    Please help me out.
    Thanks.

    Hey
    A very simple example can be getting functional acknowledgment against Purchase Orders.
    I recently worked on interface where the Business partner was sending us the purchase Orders(EDI 850) and we were sending back functional acknowledgment(EDI 997) stating them that we got their purchase order successfully and the data is in correct format.
    Similarly you can get 997 against 810,860,820,830 etc
    Thanx

    If you want to use the standared ones then when you buy the Seeburger adapters they will provide you. You may need to create your own sda files when you change their standard ones.

  • What is the use of ALE and EDI in IDOC process

    hi gurus,
    in which scenario we use ALE/EDI?
    actually IDOC stands for Intermediate document which stores the data and sendng outbound and receiving inbound.
    i am not understanding onething here what is the necessity to use ALE/EDI?
    could you please tell me?
    Regards,
    SOMIU.

    Hi Somu,
    Purpose
    Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) and Application Link Enabling (ALE) are used for exchanging business data between different systems.
    For both these forms of communication, you require the IDoc Interface. The IDoc interface is made up of the definition of a data structure and the processing logic of this data structure. The data structure is the IDoc. The IDoc is the general exchange format of the communicating systems. IDocs can be sent using different methods (for example, Structure linkRFC or as a file).
    Application Link Enabling (ALE)
    You distribute data using ALE if you want to communicate from one system to one or more other (mostly internal) systems. ALE transfers data in IDoc format and uses the methods of tRFC for data transfer.
    ·       ALE enables the integration of business processes across several SAP or non-SAP systems.
    Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
    You use EDI if you want to exchange business application documents with an (external) partner system (for example, a customer or vendor). The SAP system sends EDI messages in IDoc format to an EDI subsystem, where they are converted to a universal EDI standard (UN/EDIFACT or ANSI/X12). This enables communication with non-SAP systems.
    ·       By definition, two partners are involved in the process in an EDI application scenario: The sender and the recipient of an EDI message. 
    Thanks&Regards,
    Phani.

  • Difference btw idoc ale and edi

    Hi all,
    I'm a beginner in abap, can anyone send me the concepts of ALE, IDOC and EDI and the difference btw all the three.
    Also do send some materials for the same.

    Hi,
    ALE (Application Linking and Enabling)
    Ale Technology is SAP’s technology to support distributed yet integrated processes across several SAP systems.
    Distributed Process:
    A distributed process is one in which part of a business process is carried out on one system and part on another. The two systems would exchange data with each other at appropriate points to stay synchronized.
    Need for Distributed Process:
    • Business in Different Geographical Locations.
    • Non availability of dedicated network.
    • Cultural and language differences in Geographical locations.
    • Running of Mission-critical Applications (Like Maintenance downtime etc.).
    • Separate up gradation of Modules.
    Distributed SAP SYSTEM – CHALLENGES
    • A system that understands the syntax and semantics of the data. It was important from the very beginning to base the distribution of data on business rules, not on database replication techniques.
    • Distributed systems that can maintain their autonomy while being integrated as one logical SAP system. The systems should be able to operate independently and support logical processing of transactions and data.
    • Distributed systems that can handle different data models. A local implementation should be able to customize the system to meet its local needs.
    • Receiving systems that can handle their own problems and not tie up the sending system.
    • Systems that maintain continued operation in spite of network failure. Changes made to either system should be synchronized after the network connection is restored.
    • A sound technology and methodology that can be used in all distribution scenarios.
    SAP Distributed environment:
    ALE allows for efficient and reliable communication between distributed processes across physically separate SAP systems.
    ALE is based on application to application integration using messaging architecture. A message defines data that is exchanged between two processes. IDocs are containers that hold data exchanged between the two systems.
    Benefits of ALE:
    • Integration with non-SAP systems: ALE architecture allows third party applications to integrate with SAP system.
    • Reliable Distribution: Once message type created and the receiver of the message is determined, ALE delivers the message to the recipient. If there is any network problem it will buffer the message and delivers the message once the network is restored. It also ensures that the message is not delivered twice.
    • Release Upgrade: Any of the distributed system can be upgraded to the new release of SAP without affecting the functionality. The ALE layer ensures backward compatibility of messages exchanged between systems.
    ALE Architecture:
    It consists of an Outbound process, an Inbound process, and an Exception – Handling process.
    Outbound Process:
    ALE Outbound Process in SAP sends data to one or more SAP Systems. It involves four steps.
    1. Identify the need of IDoc: This step starts upon creating a application document, can relate to a change to a master data object.
    2. Generate the Master IDoc: The document or master data to be sent is read from the database and formatted into an IDoc format. This IDoc is called as a Master IDoc.
    3. Generate the Communication IDoc: The ALE Service layer generates a separate IDoc from the Master IDoc for each recipient who is interested in the data. Separate IDocs are generated because each recipient might demand a different version or a subset of the Master IDoc. These recipient-specific IDocs are called Communication IDocs and are stored in the database.
    4. Deliver the Communication IDoc: The IDoc is delivered to the recipients using an asynchronous communication method. This allows the sending system to continue its processing without having to wait for the destination system to receiver or process the IDoc.
    Inbound Process:
    The inbound process receives an IDoc and creates a document in the system.
    1. Store the IDoc in the database: The IDoc is received from the sending system and stored in the database. Then the IDoc goes through a basic integrity check and syntax check.
    2. Invoke the Posting Module: The control information in the IDoc and configuration tables are read to determine the posting program. The IDoc is then transferred to its posting program.
    3. Create the Document: The posting program reads the IDoc data and then creates a document in the system. The results are logged in the IDoc.
    Over view of IDocs:
    IDoc is a container that is used to exchange data between any two processes. The document represented in an IDoc is independent of the complex structure SAP uses to store application data. This type of flexibility enables SAP to rearrange its internal structure without affecting the existing interface.
    IDoc interface represents an IDoc Type or IDoc data. IDoc Type represents IDoc’s definition and IDoc Data is an instance of the IDoc Type.
    IDoc Types:
    IDoc type structure can consist of several segments, and each segment can consist of several data fields. The IDoc structure defines the syntax of the data by specifying a list of permitted segments and arrangement of the segments. Segments define a set of fields and their format.
    An IDoc is an instance of an IDoc Type and consists of three types of records.
    i. One Control record: each IDoc has only one control record. The control record contains all the control information about an IDoc, including the IDoc number, the sender and recipient information, and information such as the message type it represents and IDoc type. The control record structure is same for all IDocs.
    ii. One or Many Data records: An IDoc can have multiple data records, as defined by the IDoc structure. Segments translate into data records, which store application data, such as purchase order header information and purchase order detail lines.
    iii. One or Many Status records: An IDoc can have multiple status records. Status record helps to determine whether an IDoc has any error.
    Message in IDoc Type:
    A Message represents a specific type of document transmitted between two partners.
    Outbound Process in IDocs:
    Outbound process used the following components to generate an IDoc. A customer model, and IDoc structure, selection programs, filter objects, conversion rules, a port definition, an RFC destination, a partner profile, service programs, and configuration tables.
    The Customer Model:
    A customer model is used to model a distribution scenario. In a customer model, you identify the systems involved in a distribution scenario and the message exchanged between the systems.
    Message control:
    Message control is a cross application technology used in pricing, account determination, material determination, and output determination. The output determination technique of Message control triggers the ALE for a business document. Message control separates the logic of generating IDocs from the application logic.
    Change Pointers:
    The change pointers technique is based on the change document technique, which tracks changes made to key documents in SAP, such as the material master, customer master and sales order.
    Changes made to a document are recorded in the change document header table CDHDR, and additional change pointers are written in the BDCP table for the changes relevant to ALE.
    IDoc Structure:
    A message is defined for data that is exchanged between two systems. The message type is based on one or more IDoc structures.
    Selection Program:
    Is typically implemented as function modules, are designed to extract application data and create a master IDoc. A selection program exists for each message type. A selection program’s design depends on the triggering mechanism used in the process.
    Filter Objects;
    Filter Objects remove unwanted data for each recipient of the data basing on the recipients requirement.
    Port Definition:
    A port is used in an outbound process to define the medium in which documents are transferred to the destination system. ALE used a Transactional RFC port, which transfers data in memory buffers.
    RFC Destination:
    The RFC destination is a logical name used to define the characteristics of a communication link to a remote system on which a function needs to be executed.
    Partner Profile:
    A partner profile specifies the components used in an outbound process(logical name of the remote SAP system, IDoc Type, message type, TRFC port), an IDoc’s packet size, the mode in which the process sends an IDoc (batch versus immediate), and the person to be notified in case of error.
    Service Programs and Configuration Tables:
    The outbound process, being asynchronous, is essentially a sequence of several processes that work together. SAP provides service programs and configuration tables to link these programs and provide customizing options for an outbound process.
    Process flow for Distributing Transactional Data:
    Transactional data is distributed using two techniques: with Message control and without message control.
    Process flow for Distributing Master Data:
    Master data between SAP systems is distributed using two techniques: Stand alone Programs and Change Pointers.
    Triggering the Outbound Process via Stand-Alone Programs:
    Stand-Alone programs are started explicitly by a user to transmit data from one SAP system to another. Standard Programs for several master data objects exist in SAP. Ex. The material master data can be transferred using the RBDSEMAT program or transaction BD10.
    The stand-alone programs provide a selection screen to specify the objects to be transferred and the receiving system. After the stand-alone program is executed, it calls the IDoc selection program with the specified parameters.
    Triggering the Outbound Process via Change Pointers:
    The change pointer technique is used to initiate the outbound process automatically when master data is created or changed.
    A standard program, RBDMIDOC, is scheduled to run on a periodic basis to evaluate the change pointers for a message type and start the ALE process for distributing the master data to the appropriate destination. The RBDMIDOC program reads the table TBDME to determine the IDoc selection program for a message type.
    Processing in the Application Layer:
    The customer distribution model is consulted to make sure that a receiver has been defined for the message to be transmitted. If not, processing ends. If at least one receiver exists, the IDoc selection program reads the master data object from the database and creates a master IDoc from it. The master IDoc is stored in memory. The program then calls the ALE service layer by using the function module MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE, passing the master IDoc and the receiver information.
    Processing in the ALE Interface Layer:
    Processing in the ALE Layer consists of the following steps:
    • Receiver Determination: The determination of the receiver is done through Customer Distribution Model.
    • IDoc Filtering: if an IDoc filter is specified in the distribution model for a receiver, values in the filter are compared against the values in the IDoc data records. If a data record does not meet the filter criteria, it is dropped.
    • Segment Filtering: For each sender and receiver combination, a set of segments that are not required can be filtered out.
    • Field conversion: Field values in data records are converted by using the conversion rules specified for the segment.
    • Version change for segments: Segments are version-controlled. A new version of a segment always contains fields from the preceding version and fields added for the new version. Release in IDoc type field of the partner profile to determine the version of the segment to be generated.
    • Version change for IDocs: IDocs are also version controlled. The version is determined from the Basic Type field of the partner profile.
    • Communication IDocs generated: The final IDoc generated for a receiver after all the conversions and filtering operations is the communication IDoc. One master IDoc can have multiple communication IDocs depending on the number of receivers identified and the filter operations performed. IDoc gets the status record with a status code of 01 (IDoc Created).
    • Syntax check performed: IDoc goes through a syntax check and data integrity validation. If errors found the IDoc get the status of 26 (error during syntax check of IDoc – Outbound). If no errors found the IDoc gets the status 30 (IDoc ready for dispatch – ALE Service).
    • IDoc dispatched to the communication Layer: In the ALE process, IDocs are dispatched using the asynchronous RFC method, which means that the sending system does not await for data to be received or processed on the destination system. After IDocs have been transferred to the communication layer, they get a status code 01 (Data Passed to Port OK).
    Processing in the Communication Layer:
    To dispatch an IDoc to a destination system, the system reads the port definition specified in the partner profile to determine the destination system, which is then used to read the RFC destination. The RFC destination contains communication settings to log o to the remote SAP system. The sending system calls the INBOUND_IDOC_PROCESS function module asynchronously on the destination system and passes the IDoc data via the memory buffers.
    Inbound Process in IDocs:
    An inbound process used IDoc structure, posting programs, filter objects, conversion rules, a partner profile, service programs, and configuration tables to post an application document from an IDoc.
    Posting Program:
    Posting programs, which are implemented as function modules, read data from an IDoc and create an application document from it. A posting program exists for each message. Each posting program is assigned a process code. A process code can point to a function module or a work flow. In the standard program process codes always point to a function module.
    Ex. The posting program for message type MATMAS is IDOC_INPUT_MATMAS which has a process code MATM.
    Workflow:
    A workflow represents a sequence of customized steps to be carried out for a process. The workflow management system is used to model the sequence, identify information required to carry out the steps and identify the person responsible for the dialog steps.
    Partner Profile;
    A partner profile specifies the components used in an inbound process (partner number, message type, and process code), the mode in which IDocs are processed (batch versus immediate), and the person to be notified in case of errors.
    Process flow for the Inbound process via a Function Module:
    In this process, IDocs are received from another system and passed to the posting function module directly.
    1. Processing in the communication Layer:
    The IDOC_INBOUND_ASYCHRONOUS program, triggered as a result of an RFC from the sending system, acts as the entry point for all inbound ALE processes. The IDoc to be processed is passed as an input parameter. Control is transferred to the ALE/EDI layer.
    2. Processing in the ALE/EDI Interface Layer:
    • Basic integrity check: A basic integrity check is performed on the control record.
    • Segment Filtering and conversion: Filtering out unwanted segments and carry out any required conversion of field values.
    • Creation of Application IDoc: The application IDoc is created and stored in the database and a syntax check is performed. If there are errors it gets status code of 60 (Error during Syntax check of IDoc – Inbound). At this point a tangible IDoc, which can be monitored via one of the monitoring transactions, is created and the IDoc gets status code 50 (IDoc Added).
    • IDoc Marked ready for Dispatch: IDoc gets the status code 64 (IDoc ready to be passed to application).
    • IDoc is passed to the posting program: The partner profile table is read. If the value of the Processing field is set to Process Immediately, the IDoc is passed to the posting program immediately using the program RBDAPP01.
    3. Processing in the Posting Module:
    The process code in the partner profile points to a posting module for the specific message in the IDoc. The posting program implemented as a function module either calls a standard SAP transaction by using the Call Transaction command for posting the document or invokes a direct input function module.
    The results of execution are passed back via the function module’s output parameters. If the posting is successful IDoc gets the status code 53 (Application Document Posted) or it gets status code 51 (Error: Application Document Not Posted).
    IDOC:
    Data Creation in Idoc
    IDocs are text encoded documents with a rigid structure that are used to exchange data between R/3 and a foreign system. Instead of calling a program in the destination system directly, the data is first packed into an IDoc and then sent to the receiving system, where it is analyzed and properly processed. Therefore an IDoc data exchange is always an
    asynchronous process. The significant difference between simple RFC-calls and IDoc data exchange is the fact, that every action performed on IDocs are protocolled by R/3 and IDocs can be reprocessed if an error occurred in one of the message steps.
    While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to deliver data to the receiving system. ALE is basically the scheduling mechanism that defines when and between which partners and what kind of data will be exchanged on a regular or event triggered basis. Such a set-up is called an ALE-scenario.
    IDoc is a intermediate document to exchange data between two SAP Systems.
    *IDocs are structured ASCII files (or a virtual equivalent).
    *Electronic Interchange Document
    *They are the file format used by SAP R/3 to exchange data with foreign systems.
    *Data Is transmitted in ASCII format, i.e. human readable form
    *IDocs exchange messages
    *IDocs are used like classical interface files
    IDOC types are templates for specific message types depending on what is the business document, you want to exchange.
    WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.
    An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.
    FOr testing you can use WE19.

    An IDoc is simply a data container that is used to exchange information between any two processes that can understand the syntax and semantics of the data...
    1.IDOCs are stored in the database. In the SAP system, IDOCs are stored in database tables.
    2.IDOCs are independent of the sending and receiving systems.
    3.IDOCs are independent of the direction of data exchange.
    The two available process for IDOCs are
    Outbound Process
    Inbound Process
    AND There are basically two types of IDOCs.
    Basic IDOCs
    Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.
    Extended IDOCs
    Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.
    To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:

    EDI FLOW :
    Here is some thing which helps you and here the purchase order is taken as example too..
    Electronic Data Interchange, or EDI, is the electronic exchange of business data. Using a standard format, EDI provides a method of transmitting business data from one computer to another, without the need to re-key data. This electronic link can result in more effective business transactions. With EDI, paper documents such as invoices can be replaced with electronic transmissions, thus time is saved, and the potential for error is minimized. Data can be exchanged at any time. Related business expenses, such as postage, printing, phone calls, and handling, can also be significantly reduced. EDI can aid in the support of manufacturing efforts, such as Just-in-Time and Third Party Warehousing, and financial efforts, such as Electronic Payments.
    What parts of the business cycle can be supported by EDI?
    Any business documents that are currently exchanged using paper can be converted to an EDI. Standards. Standards include ANSI X12 and XML/EDI are primarily used in the United States, while EDIFACT is used in Europe and Asia.
    How does EDI get started?
    EDI gets started when one company contacts another expressing interest in trading business documents electronically using Electronic Data Interchange. The two companies must first determine each other's EDI capabilities. If you do not already know your EDI capabilities, we have prepared a questionnaire to help you determine them. If you are already EDI capable, we will coordinate with your technical staff to determine a testing plan. Upon completion of testing the EDI documents, the appropriate business personnel will set a production start date to begin the exchange of EDI business data. If you are not EDI capable, we recommend you first obtain a commitment from your upper management. Your company will need to allocate resources and capital for software, hardware, testing, possible programming, and training.
    What is the flow of EDI?
    The flow of EDI depends on the sophistication of your systems and your EDI software. If you have internal purchasing/order entry systems, you will need interface programs that can extract and insert data out of and into these systems. EDI programs that interface with your internal systems are preferred over software that requires re-keying of data. Embassy Software specializes in seemless interface between EDI and your back office systems. Using a purchase order as an example of a business document your customer would send that PO electronically (850) to you. It could be sent either through a VAN (Value Added Network) or through an FTP server. You would take that 850 and convert it either into and ODBC database, a flat file or XML document to be imported into your Order System with the use of EDI Software such as PassportXchange.. Using EDI communication software, which is part of the PassportXchange package you would pull down data at set intervals from the VAN or FTP. These documents are then processed through EDI translation software and output to our order entry system. Finally, an EDI document called a functional acknowledgment (997) is sent to your customer.
