Reviewing and Editing EDI 845 Pricing Contract Detail

Review and edit the detail of pricing contract information the system receives on EDI 845 Price Authorization Acknowledgment documents. Each line on the Contract Detail window displays the data relevant to each product and product group included in the selected contract. The system uses the UPC# to locate matching product records in Eclipse and uses the group ID to locate matching sell groups in the Sell Group Translation window associated with the 845's group profile in Trading Partner Maintenance. The system sorts the queue entries in the following order:

• Products not found.

• Matching products, sorted by price line and then product sequence within price line.

• Groups not found.

• Matching groups, in alphabetical order.

The system creates a sell matrix cell for each matched line when you run the contract update. Before running the update, you need to review and edit the contract detail.

Use the views in the Contract Detail window to review and scan for errors and edit the contract detail. As you are reviewing details, the lines in error display with an icon in the Error field. Move your cursor over the icon to display the error message. You can also select the item in error and select View > View Error messages. Use the Error icon as a way to scan the list for the items that require your attention before updating the contracts.

Note: You can double-click the Error column heading to sort all the lines with errors to the top of the queue.

To review and edit EDI 845 pricing contract detail:

1. Display the Selection Criteria window in one of the following ways and enter the selection criteria:

2. From the System > System Programming > EDI > EDI Review Queues menu, select EDI 845 Review Queue.

3. From the Purchase >Queues menu, select EDI 845 Review Queue.

2. Select a contract you want to review or edit and select View > Contract Detail to display the EDI/Product Group view of the Contract Detail window.

Note: The window has four views. Select Options > Change View to select a different view.

3. Review and edit the data displayed in the EDI/Product Group view to resolve "product not found" and "group not found" errors by updating the Product file and the Sell Group Table in Trading Partner Maintenance, as needed.

   After making the required updates and before viewing the other views, return to the queue and select Edit > Requeue to reprocess the 845.

   Leave product/group "not found" entries in the queue if you do not want to create matrix cells for those products/groups. When you run an update, the system ignores these entries. You can also use the Alt-Delete keys to delete line items for products you do not sell.
