An EDI 860 Purchase Order Change Request is a document your customer may send to inform you of changes they want to make to a prior purchase order.
Before the system can receive an 860, set up the system as follows:
Create a trading partner profile for which an 860 inbound document is defined.
Assign the vendor from whom you are receiving the 860 to this profile.
You can set up your trading partner profiles to process incoming 860s in one of the following ways:
Run the EDI.860.PRINT.DOC program, which formats the data and sends the report to your Hold file.
Run the EDI.PRINT.DOC program, which translates the raw data and places an unformatted report in your Hold file.
Install a mapper that has been customized to create a tracker in the user's job queue.
After making the requested changes, you can send an EDI 865 Purchase Order Acknowledgement With Change in response. The system transmits purchase order acknowledgements with change to customers using EDI when you set the print status of the order to EDI.
Note:Eclipse gathers the EDI ID for the 860 transaction from the order's bill-to/ship-to customer information rather than the Trading Partner Profile information.
