Setting up Discounts in JAS from EDI PO's

Setting up Discounts in JAS from EDI PO's

Introduction

Some trading partners such as Walmart, requires that EDI invoices contain the same Discount Codes and Descriptions that were sent in on the EDI Purchase Orders.  These codes print on the EDI PO. Once the PO is processed in EDI, the discount codes found on the PO will be loaded into a reference table. This table will be used at the time of EDI invoicing to browse all existing discount codes in that mailbox. The following document explains how to do this.
 

Setup

Step 1: Update the Browse/Update Mailbox screen to load discounts
The mailboxes in EDI must have the options activated to load discounts.  Click here to access the wiki to learn how to set up the options in the mailbox settings.
 
Step 2: Add the discounts in the code file

Go to:

  • Set Up
  • Code File

Select 'Debit Adjustment'.

Click on "Add".

Create a 2 digit discount code.

In the description field type in an asterisk at the beginning of the description followed by the 4 character code that is used by that trading partner.

  • This enables the program to match up the Walmart discounts in EDI with the JAS discounts.

Enter the appropriate discount amount and click "Update".

 


Repeat the process for 'Credit Adjustment'.

 

Note about EDI invoices

When an EDI invoice is created, it compares the JAS invoice with the EDI PO. If the discount codes aren't listed in JAS in the code file, at the time of creating an 810, the system will bring up a browse screen to allow the user to select the appropriate code to correspond to the JAS codes.  Those codes must be selected before the EDI invoice is sent.
