Trading Partner Link to Oracle e-Commerce Gateway
Suppliers and supplier sites are defined in either Oracle Purchasing or Oracle Payables.
Included in the definition is the EDI Location Code that trading partners agree to
exchange to represent the full detailed address. Often they do not send the full address,
but just the EDI Location Code. This is a critical data field to Oracle e-Commerce
Gateway.
The EDI Location Code is the link between a supplier/supplier site in Oracle
Applications and the trading partner site definition in Oracle e-Commerce Gateway.
This enables Oracle e-Commerce Gateway to access the detailed data about the supplier
or supplier site in the base Oracle Applications without maintaining the detail data in
Oracle e-Commerce Gateway.
To ensure that the trading partner link between Oracle e-Commerce Gateway and
Oracle Applications is set up properly, verify that the supplier/supplier site and the EDI
Location Code in Oracle Applications is the correct supplier/supplier site selected for
the Trading Partner definition in Oracle e-Commerce Gateway. The selected
supplier/supplier site and the EDI Location Code defined in Oracle Applications are
displayed in the Define Trading Partners window, Assignment tab. If the data is not
what you intend it to be, you must make the appropriate changes for the transaction to
be imported for the correct trading partner. This could involve either altering the
supplier/supplier site in the base Oracle Application, or assigning a different
supplier/supplier site to that EDI Location Code in Oracle e-Commerce Gateway.
Refer to the Trading Partner chapter for recommendations on selecting the correct
trading partner EDI Location Code for the control record 0010 for the transaction in the
transaction interface file.
Oracle e-Commerce Gateway Required Fields
The following is a list of the Oracle e-Commerce Gateway required fields. These fields
are required to authenticate the trading partner and transaction. If the required data is
not provided in the transaction, the Oracle e-Commerce Gateway import process fails
the transaction. Then an exception message is displayed in the View Staged Documents
window.
If the trading partner is valid and the transaction is enabled, the import process
proceeds to validate the transaction using the user-defined column rules. If no process
or column rule exceptions are detected, the Oracle e-Commerce Gateway import
program will write the transaction to the Payables Open Interface tables to be processed
by the Payables Open Interface API.
