EDI Import

You can open the “EDI Import” via the menu point:

Sales-A/R - Automotive - Incoming Data - EDI Import

The received EDI data can be loaded here und passed on to the ATM module.

The program “EDI-monitor” which establishes a connection between the customer’s and the vendor’s computer runs permanently on the server. The EDI-monitor records the directory where the arriving data is stored. This directory is also saved in the ATM-Configuration in the “EDI import path”.

Upon opening the “EDI import” a empty window appears. According to the configuration the import path is preallocated. If one clicks on Load data(1) all the files of the listed directory are loaded.
The files which should be imported can be selected here(2).
As a last step one has to click Import(3). All files which have been imported successfully are moved to the subdirectory “Imported”. The moved file gets a new prefix with the following content:

[Business processes(JIS, JIT,...)]_[EDI-No.int.]_[Timestamp]_

If an error occurs with the import, a error message is printed in the protocol and the file will not be moved.

Two features are available in the “EDI Import”:

• Import
• Cancel
