Customer

Integration systems Trading partner (example online sales site) may require customer data.

The following subsections will describe how to view, process and send Customer to applicable Integration system Trading partners.

  1. Create Template for the document.
  2. Create Outbound filenames for the document.
  3. If the Integration systems trading partner doesn’t exist, create the new trading partner.
  4. Add and enable the Customer document to the Integration system trading partner and select the applicable:
    • Template
    • File name setup
    • Change tracking
  5. Create a new batch job for the trading partner and document in Export batch jobs

Processing

Change tracking

Integration documents are created by enabling change tracking on the trading partner’s outgoing document(s). The document change tracking’s Full can be set to Yes, in order to send all the records for the tracked table. Once the staging record has been created for the full version, the Document change tracking’s Full field will automatically update to No in order to send changes with the next batch run.
Document change tracking’s Update version is also updated each time a staging record is created. Only changes after the Update version are added in the staging record.

If required to send full set of data again, the trading partner’s document change tracking’s Full can be set to Yes again.

The following tables are tracked for the Customer document:
