Sending Purchase Order through EDI

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by PhilMorris 85

Our company currently only receives Sales Orders and sends Invoices to the customers through Navision using EDI. We are looking to setup, I believe it is an 850 Purchase Order. I was wondering if anybody has a file to use as a templete to get started on this? Thank.

    My question would be do you want to update these files every time your Trading Partners request a change as that can become a logistic nightmare

    Secondly going this route will add a lot of unneccassry customization to your Dynamics ERP as you will need to find a home for all the information that the Trading Partner may send you because you may need to add on the documents going back out. All this could slow down and complex future upgrades.

    If you would like to discuss a more plug and play solution that does not add customization to your environment and also can handle all your compliance work then let me know as we have a solution that is tightly integrated: Vantage Point EDI for NAV.

    Another Option would be Lanham EDI.

    are you using any 3rd party solution now?

    Jon, thanks for the response but we're not looking to add to the software, just utilize the Lanham functionallity already in Navision. We currently receive daily Sales Orders and send Invoices and haven't had any problems with this. We're just looking to automate our outgoing Purchase Order to our Vendors in the same manner.

    Thanks

    No problem Phil. If anything ever changes just so you know we also support automation for both Customer and Vendor EDI in and out of NAV with full exception reporting.

    Jon.

    So you do use Lanham?

    Did you read the EDI Mapping Guide?

    Check the appendix for samples.
