I don't know how many of you use this but...

I have a partner set up that works,

850 POs
865 ASN's
810 Invoices

All Work Beautifully~

Now I have another customer that wants to be set up EDI and just to make things easier they use the SAME templates!!!!

So all i did was copy the EDI Templates from 1 customer to another.
All I changed was the output file name.

All sounds good at this point.

So I received some po's - imported it, Processed it (Picked /Packed/Posted) ( all worked fine)
now I want to Export the Invoice & Nothing happens!

(yes) i tried Re-create yes & no (just in case)

It doesn't generate anything. I used code coverage & debugger & I can't see where it goes wrong.

It seems all it needs to generate an invoice is to have EDI Invoice=True
on the Sales Invoice Header & it does!

The customers are set up the same & their ship-to's are set up the same too. Anyone know what i'm missing here? ](*,) ](*,) ](*,)

    It looks like it never get's the record..

    But as I said " "Sales Invoice Header"."EDI Order",True

    I found the problem.

    While looking at Export Sales Invoice report#14000351

    I guess whomever installed it HARDCODED that 1 customer# into the
    DataItemTableView Property [-X

    Hmm...

    My experience with EDI is that it often requires 'hardcoded' stuff, to deal with every trading partner's 'special case' stuff.

    Maybe whoever did that did so because they knew they were doing something that was 'specific'... 8-[

    Or, then again, maybe they just wanted to have a chat with you, when you got around to expanding to new trading partners... O:)

    Hmm...

    I think they did that because in the beginning they were our only customer that required an 810 Invoice.

    Never thinking that maybe one day in the future others would require it.

    I think they also didn't know that it already filtered on "EDI Invoice" Boolean field on the Sales Invoice Header.

    All I know is it took 2 days to find that!

    The following fields on the EDI tab of the sales order are also used to map the order to the trading partner information.
    EDI Trade Partner
    EDI Sell-to Code
    EDI Ship-for Code
    EDI Ship-to Code
