Use the EDI purchase arrival staging journal to monitor the EDI purchase arrivals (ASNs) you receive from a vendor.

The purchase arrivals that you receive with a 'Purchase - XML to EDI purchase arrival ' message are stored in the EDI purchase arrival journal.

If you monitor EDI purchase arrivals, the statuses are important.

2. By default, only the EDI purchase arrivals with errors or warnings are shown.
  To show all EDI purchase arrivals, clear the Show errors check box.

Notes

On the staging document (the document that is used to create the staging journal), you can indicate that a staging journal is split if lines are rejected. To do so, on the document header, set the 'Split on error' field to 'Yes' and fill in 'Split percentage' field.

On creation of an EDI staging journal, when line validations are not met, the staging journal can be split into two staging journals. If the staging journal is split, separate staging journals are created with the:

  • Approved lines. So, these lines can be processed further.
  • Rejected lines.

Whether a staging journal is split, depends on the defined split percentage and the number of rejected lines. If the percentage of rejected lines is:

  • Lower than the split percentage, the staging journal is split into a staging journal with approved lines and a staging journal with rejected lines.
  • Higher than the 'split percentage', the staging journal is not split. So, only one staging journal is created with the journal status 'Rejected'.

You can also manually split a staging journal with approved and rejected lines. As a result, an additional staging journal is created to which the rejected lines are moved. To do so, on the EDI purchase confirmation page, on the Action Pane, on the EDI order tab, click Split journal.
