Setting Post Locations for XML Customer Transaction Documents

For each customer you do business with using XML, define the URL location to which to save outgoing documents, such as order acknowledgements, invoices, and advance ship notices. This URL can be specific for each type of transaction, or a default for all transactions for the customer, regardless of the type.

If the transactions with a customer are inbound only, a post location is not required for sending the standard Status 200 HTTP response that indicates to the customer's system that you received their XML document transmission.

To set post locations for XML customer transaction documents:

From the Files menu, select Customer to display the Customer Maintenance screen and open a customer record.
Use the Remote hot key to display the Remote Order Entry Parameters screen.
Use the WOE Info hot key to display the B2B/WOE Remote Order Entry Parameters screen.
Use the B2B Post URL hot key and select the type of transaction for which you are setting the post location.

The system uses the location in the Default transaction type if all transactions' posts go to the same location for the customer. If the customer requires posts for different transaction types to go to different locations, set the URL for the individual transaction type.

In the B2B Post URL field, enter the post location for XML documents for the customer.

To trade secure information, such as credit card information, use the HTTPs transport protocol instead of plain HTTP. Specify the post URL as https:// instead of http://.

Press Esc until you return to the Customer Maintenance screen.
Press Esc to save the customer record and exit the screen.
