To run the Dispatch Inbound EDI Data process during End of Day (EOD (End-of-Day) Also known as day-ending processing, an automated process you run at the end of a business day to update daily files.) processing, check this box. If you check this box, then during EOD, the Dispatch Inbound EDI Data is run to process all types of inbound EDI documents. It does not process any outbound EDI documents.

If you leave the box blank, you can still manually run this process on demand using Import Received EDI Documents. You can also run it as an Administered Phantom via Administer Phantom Processes (select EDI.800.PTM) or as a scheduled phantom (select Dispatch EDI Invoice Documents and/or Dispatch EDI Acknowledgement/Notification Documents).

STORIS uses the number that appears here to identify each outbound transmission sent to the network provider (for example, Exim). The number increments by one after a document is transmitted, so each transmission is assigned a unique control number.

Important: STORIS strongly recommends you do not edit the Last Control Number Used field. If you have an issue with control numbers, please contact your STORIS representative.

When generating EDI 850 and 860 documents from a purchase order, the EDI Buyer Store field is set to the purchase order’s Selling Location. Use this field to determine how the selling location is to be set for EDI purchase orders. If you leave this check box blank, the 850 and 860 EDI documents’ buyer store fields are set to the user’s login location.  

If you check this box, then when EDI documents are being created from purchase orders, the selling location for purchase orders not already containing a selling location is assigned according to the following conditions.

• If the purchase order is linked to a single sales order, set the Selling Location to the sales order’s Selling Store Location.

• If the EDI generation is occurring during an unattended process (e.g. EOD) and there are either no linked sales orders or multiple linked sales orders with different Selling Store Locations, then set the Selling Location to the user's login location.

• For attended processes (e.g. purchase order entry), if there are either no linked sales orders or multiple linked sales orders with different Selling Store Locations, then the Selling Location window displays following a Yes response at the "Submit PO for EDI transmission" prompt. Use the pop-up window to enter the selling location.

To flag as “printed” all purchase orders submitted for EDI transmission, check the box. To have the system consider purchase orders submitted for EDI transmission as “not printed”, leave the box blank.

 This field does not affect existing purchase orders that have already been transmitted.

If using the WMS Interface, be sure to check the box at this field.

Check the box at this field to indicate that purchase order quantities are updated for increases less than or equal to the maximum amount indicated in the Maximum Quantity Increase field. If you do not want to allow increases, leave this box blank.

If you have checked the box at the Increases Within the Maximum field, entry in this field is mandatory.  Enter a number greater than zero.  This is the maximum quantity that a purchase order quantity can be increased.
