Modifying EDI schemas

Make your own copy of each EDI schema you are likely to use.

About this task

For example, if you are using ANSI 3050 data:

  1. Open the ansi3050 schema.
  2. Choose Save As from the File menu.
  3. Rename this schema something new, for example, my3050.
    You can then modify your own version schema. If you inadvertently delete something you need, or later decide to add more, open the original schema and copy the missing information to your own schema.

You should customize your EDI schema to suit your trading needs. For information on modifying your schema to include only those types you need, see "Create industry subsets".
