Functional Acknowledgement from the receiver on an EDI Transmssn (03 to16)

[Former Member]

A. In an Outbound Idoc, the status 03 states- Data Passed to Port Ok. This means that all the data from SAP has been sent out successfully.

B. Now the requirement is to get an acknowledgement, whether sent data has been received by the Receiver or not.

C. At present, the Outbound Idocs has final status as 03.

How to get a functional Acknowledgement from Receiver and it will change the status of the Idoc to 16(Functional Acknowledgement accepted)

To get the Acknowledgement from non SAP system we need to activate this functionality in receiving system.So that you can get confirmations.Check with EDI person he should have some solution.I have seen this kind of scnario where we get acknowledgement from third party system.

Where ever PO is sent to the vendor via EDI, we want an acknowledgement of the PO by vendor. Which fields are updated and what should be my procedure?

Execute Program: IDOC_INPUT_ORDRSP

Process code: ORDR

Message type: ORDRSP

IDOC: ORDERS01

The confirmation process allows the supplier to return an acknowledgment. Only Dates and Quantities can be changed The information is stored in the PO and can be viewed via Item->Confirmation->Overview. The PO can be flagged as 'confirmation reQuired' so that Pos without acknowledgement receipt can be monitored. Control keys and tolerances (days and Quantities) have to be customized.

? The Company uses a 997 transaction set for the acknowledgement of vendor and Company EDI transmissions.

? Vendors will need to generate a 997 message for each Company inbound file received within 48 business hrs.

? The Company will generate a 997 message for each vendor inbound file upon successful receipt and translation of the EDI transmission.

? Missing vendor inbound 997 messages may be subject to chargeback

? Vendors failing to receive a Company 997 message must contact the Company's EDI department immediately
