1.1 How do I know if the Vendor accepts EDI Transactions?

Updated on

Steps in the screenshots correspond to the numbers in the headings.

ATS is undertaking an initiative to move to EDI processing for our top strategic vendor partners. The Sourcing Department will be responsible for setting up the Supplier record with the proper settings to allow EDI transactions for Parts, GNS or both.  Each vendor will go through a verification process that ensures a seamless transition between our companies.  This will help avoid errors in processing, and reduce the possibility of grief.

If a supplier requests information about becoming an EDI Vendor Partner, please direct them to your Support Supervisor.

As a buyer, if you are uncertain if the Vendor accepts EDI, you can confirm by checking the Supplier Record.

1. From the Main Menu, go to Inventory > Purchasing > Supplier.

2. Click on the red chevron in the Search Field.

3. Enter the Supplier ID in the appropriate field.

4. Click on the green magnifying glass.

5. The record will load.

6. In the right hand corner of the header, you will see a column that says Purchasing EDI.

The options you will see are Mat (Parts only), GNS (GNS Only) or Both.

In the initial phases of the roll-out, we will be dealing with Parts suppliers only.

7. If the supplier uses EDI, eFACTORYPRO will process the PO posting, vendor confirmation, integration with SAP, shipping and invoicing through EDI.

Each of the remaining training documents will walk you through the EDI process transactions.
