IFS Cloud EDI inbound orders- how to address invalid value for property message

We are on the path to converting to IFS cloud and I have (hopefully) a quick question.

On the inbound 850 customer order creation we get the following error:

Some of our customers will send a value for this and some will not.  I’ve asked our EDI provider if they can not send the field if blank.  Is there a way in IFS to handle this?  I’d like it to just ignore a blank and not go through the validation.

Thanks,

Tim

@TimSchoenberner  how does the api message look like? (Incoming json) and what api endpoint do you use? 
 

You could add a small java transformer to clean up the json. Then you add it in the routing address just before it gets posted to the IFS Projection

The OriginalPlannedDeliveryDate at the line level is not a required field. 

You can manage one of the below ways:

  1. Have them omit the attribute as you indicated
  2. Send the attribute but with a null value
  3. Ensure the value they are sending is in YYYY-MM-DD format
