In response to an 840 Request for Quote from an EDI customer, the system creates a sales order with a Bid status and places it in the Remote Order Entry Review Queue. The system sends a message to the user responsible for reviewing incoming 840s. This person reviews the 840 and then changes the Prt status to E for EDI. When the user presses Esc to exit the bid, the system sends your customer an EDI 843 Response to RFQ.
Before you can send an 843, set up the system as follows:
Create a trading partner profile for which an 843 outbound document is defined.
Assign the customer to whom you are sending the 843 to this profile.
To send an EDI 843 Response to Request for Quote:
From the Orders > Queues menu, select Remote Order Entry Review to display the Remote Order Entry Review Queue window.
Select the bid, and from the Order menu select Edit Order.
Edit the bid, as needed.
Display the Status tab of the bid and change the Prt status to E for EDI.
The system transmits an EDI 843 Response to RFQ to the customer from which you received the 840.
Note: To remove the bid from the Remote Order Entry Review Queue, select the order, and from the Edit menu select Clear Review.
