Set EDI 850 Options

When you click Other info in Drop File Interface - EDI 850 options, you set up parameters for EDI used by the Order Import (EPI) and Quote-to-Order Transfer (EPIB) programs. Some of the parameters can be overridden by customer in EDI Trading Partner Maintenance (TEDIPM). See Background: Order Import for information about the import process, validation, and file format.

Set these options:

Field Name	Type / Max Length	Action / Description
Use existing line numbers?	Optional	Select if you want to use the orders' existing line numbers or leave blank if you do not.
Choose one:
Use EDI pricing?	Conditional	Select if you want to use EDI pricing or leave blank if you do not.
Use system pricing?	Conditional	Select if you want to override any pricing with the system's pricing or leave blank to accept the existing price.
Use system pricing when zero?	Conditional	Select if you want to use the system's pricing if there is no price for the item or leave blank to omit a price.
Apply pricing surcharges?	Optional	If you are using EDI pricing, select if you want to apply surcharges or leave blank if surcharges do not apply to EDI prices.
Skip price validation?	Optional	Select if you do not want prices validated or leave blank if you do not.
Use header date if line date is blank?	Optional	Select if you want to use the header's date if there is no line item date. If left blank, the date wanted and expected ship for the line are based on the line's date promised. If the date promised is not specified, the system date is used.
Adjustment window (days)	Required 3 numeric	Enter the number of days in the adjustment window. This number together with the login date determines the range of dates for which the Date wanted, Date promised, and Expected ship offsets are applied. For example, if today is February 1 and the adjustment window is 5 days, the offset applies to dates in the 02/01 to 02/05 range. The offset is not applied to any dates outside this range. The dates in the adjustment window do not have to be on the shop calendar.
Date wanted offset	Required 3 numeric	Enter the number of days that you want the Date wanted to be offset for dates within the adjustment window. For example, if you enter -5, the Date wanted moves backward five days. If the window is from 02/01 to 02/05 and the Date wanted on an order is 02/05, it is changed to 02/01.
Date promised offset	Required 3 numeric	Enter the number of days that you want the Date promised to be offset within the adjustment window. For example, if you enter -10, the Date promised moves backward 10 days. If the window is from 02/01 to 02/14 and the Date promised on an order is 02/14, it is changed to 02/04.
Expected ship date offset	Required 3 numeric	Enter the number of days that you want the Expected ship date to be offset within the adjustment window. For example, if you enter -10, the Expected ship moves backward 10 days. If the window is from 02/01 to 02/14 and the Expected ship on an order is 02/10, it is changed to 02/01.
Auto-obligate orders?	Optional	Select if you want to obligate all orders or leave blank if you do not.
Skip customer item validation?	Optional	Select if you want to skip the validation of the customer item number.
Skip minimum sales qty chk?	Optional	Select if you want to skip the validation that at least the minimum sales order quantity has been ordered.
Custom program to run	Optional	With the assistance of PowerShift support, you can have custom program logic applied to incoming orders (before they are transferred to live sales orders). The Custom program to run is validated against the codes entered in Label Program Maintenance. The label code must be set up with Wait for response? selected and Use terminal? and Send queue file as input? not selected. Other parameters may be sent, depending on the program being run.
Reason for cancellation	Optional	Select the default reason for order cancellation. The default is used if there is no reason code in the import file. See Reason Codes Maintenance (TRCM).
Place order on hold?	Optional	Select to put imported orders on hold.
