We are integrating with a supplier using EDI and have setup the transfer of incoming customer orders and purchase invoices during setup and testing.

There is a need to send the supplier our customer delivery address information so they can reference this on their orders, as they are delivering to our customers using supply code ‘Purch Ord Direct’.  This process should be scheduled daily to allow them to keep their records up-to-date as new customers are added.

I have so far been able to create a quick report to get the required information and been able to schedule the quick report to send the data via e-mail. 

Does anyone know if there is a way for us to schedule the output in csv or xml format for IFS connect to send the file into a sFTP location?

We are on IFS10 UPD16.

 

Thanks

Darren

 

Hi @darren j turner 

with IFS connect there isn’t a way for your case.

You can do that.with boomi if you use it.

Hi @darren j turner 

 

You can create a schedule script in IFS using a small trick. Following community topic explains how to do it ;)

You can use the same SQL as in the quick report to fetch the data as a plsql cursor, create the XML/CSV as a clob and send to IFS Connect using Plsqlap_Server_API.Post_Outbound_Message

 Post_Outbound_BizAPI (ifs.com)

 

Hope it helps!
