Your EDI data

If you are sending and receiving EDI data, you might want to do any or all of the following activities:

  • Send a functional acknowledgment to a trading partner for an inbound data interchange.
  • Track an outbound data interchange that you send to a trading partner.
  • Reconcile an inbound acknowledgment with its corresponding outbound data interchange.

A full EDI subsystem would also include other functions:

  • Archiving
  • Correcting and resending, or correcting and resending data
  • Creating past due notice reports

You might want more profile factors, such as an expected time interval to receive acknowledgments.

Note: When you run the maps in the track folder, run the TrackOut map first. Then, run TrackAck. If you want to try it again, run the PurgeSuspense and PurgeHistory maps to reset the data.
