Running the Outbound Extraction Program to Send Responses to RFQs

Use the Outbound Extraction program to send a response to a request for quote (843/QUOTES). From the Request for Quote (RFQ), Sales menu (G47211), select Outbound Extraction.

Run this program after the system receives and processes an inbound request for quotation.

You can set processing options to:

  • Close the quote request after generating the quote order by using 999 for the next status.

  • Leave the quote request open to be turned into a sales order using online sales order entry and duplicating the order into a sales order document type.

The Outbound Extraction program extracts records from the Sales Order Management application tables and creates Responses to Requests for Quotes within the EDI outbound interface tables so that they can be sent to the trading partner.
