More options for acknowledgement transmission parameter

Summary

Additional options for ACK transmission parameter in reporting destination

Description

The Suppress ACK transmission checkbox in Console > Reporting Destination > EDI tab is converted into a drop-down with following options:

• Generate and Transmit Ack
• Generate Ack and Suppress transmission of Ack
• Suppress generation and transmission of Ack

Before the upgrade, an existing reporting destination may have had the Suppress ACK transmission check box either selected or cleared. After the upgrade, that setting is reflected in the drop-down as follows::

• If Suppress ACK transmission was checked, the drop-down shows Suppress generation and transmission of Ack.
• If Suppress ACK transmission was unchecked, the drop-down shows Generate and Transmit Ack.

There is no change in functionality for these options:

• If ACK Transmission is set to Generate and Transmit Ack, the system generates and sends an acknowledgement (ACK) for each received ICSR.
• If ACK Transmission is set to Suppress generation and transmission of Ack, the system does not generate or send an acknowledgement (ACK) for the received ICSR.

Note:

For E2B reports processed via the gateway or sFTP channel, it’s recommended not to use Generate Ack and Suppress transmission of Ack, because Argus does not provide a way to view or track the acknowledgements generated with this setting.
