A customer sends an EDI 862 Shipping Schedule to report on consignment items they have shipped. Depending on the codes transmitted in the 862, you system creates a consignment or regular sales order.
You can also use the data received from an 862 shipping schedule to create a bar code label and pick ticket.
Before the system can receive an 862, set up the system as follows:
Create a trading partner profile for which an 862 inbound document is defined.
Assign the customer from whom you are receiving the 860 to this profile.
Have EDI Support customize the mapper used to receive the 862.
