Design Overview

This purpose of this module is to continue the process started by the batch program ediupack.pc of building purchase orders that reflect the vendor-generated orders as received through the EDI 855. This module will process records from the temporary EDI order table and create the purchase orders on the PO tables.

The post-processing function of this batch on the prepost batch truncates the EDI temporary order table.

Restart/Recovery

The logical unit of work for the program is a vendor order number, department and supplier combination. The program's restartability is dependent on the value of the Department Level Orders system parameter. Allowing multi-department orders (that is, the indicator is set to 'N') will restart the program from the last successfully processed vendor order number and supplier. If the system requires a department on the orders (that is, the indicator is set to 'Y'), then the program will restart from the last successfully processed vendor order number, department, and supplier.
