General Information about Import EDI Orders

Why Use This Procedure?

This procedure is a supplement function in MONITOR. This procedure is used to import purchase orders received from the supplier via the EDI message (ORDERS). This is mainly used when the supplier is monitoring our stock balance.

The procedure consists of an order header at the top of the window where you can select to import purchase orders or load an existing order number in the system. Further down in the window there are order rows which display all rows that have been imported or the rows on the existing order which you have loaded.

You can use Ctrl+C to copy the supplier code, part number etc.

Before you can use the EDI import, you must configure your system to support EDI and install a special EDI Bridge. Furthermore your supplier must use EDI when placing their orders with their customers. Please read more about EDI in the Using MONITOR Procedures guide.
