Data Exchange
Data Exchange functions accelerate recurring task in EDI operations.
Data mapping (cross reference)
During data exchange process is often necessary to map incoming data (for example a code) to others one and vice versa.
Search for "Data Exchange References" and create a new mapping profile. Each profile has a unique code and a description.
With the action "Tables" you can map a local table (for example 18 for the Customer table) with its primary key to a custom value. For example internal code "C0001" can be mapped to "K453" for external operations.
Vice versa with action "Values" you can map a custom value to one or more local table. A typical example is an external combined code for payment method and terms that should be mapped to two internal tables (for example the code "B030" that becomes "BANK" for bank transfer method and "30D" for 30 days terms).
