Resending E-commerce data

Inbound and outbound data that has been processed by Trading Manager can be viewed and edited. Run the Interchange traffic report to resend the interchange immediately or edit/resend the interchange data.

The resend interchange data feature extracts data from the Message Manager archive folder.

  • The resend immediately feature allows you to resend a message immediately, without viewing or editing the original e-commerce data, inbound or outbound.
  • The edit/resend interchange feature allows you to edit the interchange, and then resend it.

You must run the Interchange traffic report to access these features.

Note: The Security Group Maintenance > Transmission Data setting controls view, edit, and resend capability.

The ability to resend inbound or outbound data allows you to resubmit e-commerce data that had previously been transformed correctly, but may have encountered transmission errors during processing by the receiving application.

You can view and edit the original e-commerce data prior to resending to your trading partner or internal application. This allows you to update a code that did not pass EDI validation, or create a file containing only a single transaction set that for resubmission.

The Message Manager picks up and reprocesses the file that was resent. A new ThreadID reflects this resend activity.

The Server Directory Configuration Maintenance utility configures the location of the archived transmission data and the location where resent data is placed.

Note: For more information on the Update and Resend components of the Message Manager, see the Trading Manager documentation.
