Set up document flow - Receipts list |
Application Consultant |
Set up a document flow to send a receipts list message to a specific 3PL warehouse. On the document flow, set the 'Warehouse - Receipts list to XML' message. This message sends the receipts list to the 3PL warehouse. You can choose to exchange this EDI message using a web service. In this case, instead of the message, use an outbound web service action with the 'Warehouse - Receipts list to XML' message as request message. |
Generate receipts list |
Buyer |
When a receipts list is generated, it is added to the Receipts list journal. If an applicable document flow with direction 'Outbound' and type 'Receipts list' exists, also a record is added to the Outbound message queue. When this record is processed, the 'Warehouse - Receipts list to XML' message is run. As a result, an EDI receipts list message file is created and sent to the 3PL warehouse to inform them on the expected receipt. To generate a receipts list, on a Purchase orders page, on the Action pane, on the Receive tab, in the Generate group, click Receipts list. |
