34 Review Address Batches

Before and after converting your addresses, you must review them and make any necessary corrections. In certain custom conversions, you might need to manually correct the information in some fields after the address batches are converted, but before they are processed into the address book files.

This chapter contains these topics:

Before You Begin

Verify that you have transactions in the Address Book Batch Input file (F0101Z1). This temporary file contains the addresses to be converted.

34.1 Reviewing Addresses

Navigation

To ensure that your addresses are correct, review them both before and after processing them.

To review addresses

On Batch Address Review

  1. Locate the addresses that you want to review.

  2. To limit the addresses displayed, complete any of the following fields:

    • User ID

    • Batch Number

    • Transaction Number

    • Address Number

Field Explanation
User ID The source of the transaction. This can be a user ID, a workstation, the address of an external system, a node on a network, and so on. This field helps identify both the transaction and its point of origin.
Batch Number The number that the transmitter assigns to the batch. During batch processing, the system assigns a new batch number to the JD Edwards World transactions for each control (user) batch number it finds.
Transaction Number This is the number that an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) transmitter assigns to a transaction. In a non-EDI environment, you can assign any number that is meaningful to you to identify a transaction within a batch. It can be the same as a JD Edwards World document number.
Address Number A number that identifies an entry in the Address Book system. Use this number to identify employees, applicants, participants, customers, suppliers, tenants, and any other Address Book members.

34.2 Reviewing Transaction Detail

Navigation

From Address Book (G01), enter 27

From A/B Advanced and Technical Operations (G0131), choose Batch Address Processing

From Batch Address Processing (G01313), choose Batch Address Review

The transaction detail is retrieved from an outside source and held in a temporary file until you upload the data into the Address Book Master file. Review the transaction detail to ensure that the data you upload is correct. For example, you might want to ensure that the correct transaction number corresponds to a particular user ID or that you did not right-justify the information in a field when you intended to left-justify it.

To review transaction detail

On Batch Address Review

  1. Choose Transaction Detail.
