Send Order Confirmation
Explanation
If you are using the EDI message function, you can send an order confirmation message
to the customer. You can use this function to re-send the customer order confirmation
message as well.
Prerequisites
- Basic data for the EDI message function must have been set up in IFS/Connectivity.
- You must have entered data for EDI for applicable customer in the
Customer/Message
Setup. The Method Default check box
must be selected for the message.
- The customer order should have been created by processing an incoming
customer order.
System Effects
- The customer order confirmation is sent via EDI to the customer.
- If it is an internal customer order, the message
sent will end up as an incoming purchase order confirmation on the demand
site. If the demand site has the Execute
Order Change Online check box
selected, the incoming purchase order confirmation is processed online on the
demand site. If automatic approval is enabled you will get an instant
validation and update on the demand site. This continues as far as possible
in multiple tiers of internal orders, if you have automatic replication.
Without online processing all this happens in background jobs.
