Menu Access
Character: EDI 7 11
GUI: EDI; System
Use this function to generate and compile programs used by the Generate EDI Data and Receive
EDI Data before these functions are run. Doing so, will reduce the time required to
generate and receive EDI data, as the programs will not have to be generated when the
functions are executed.
You will be prompted for the range of trading partners, versions, transaction sets and
segment sequence numbers to generate formulas for. The system will then proceed to create
the programs, compile them, and save them into the send and receive program directories to
use for the trading partner.
If the system is unable to create a program directory for a particular trading partner,
then you will receive an error message, and the formulas will not be generated. Please
contact your system administrator if this is the case.
You will receive a status message to indicate whether or not a particular formula was
compiled successfully. If it is not, then use the Segment Override
Maintenance function to verify the formula.
This program can be run at any time, but should be run after changes have been made to a
trading partner's formulas, and before the Generate EDI
Data or Receive EDI Data function is run. This
function is stackable, and should be placed into a job stacker if many formulas are to be
generated.
