Creating an Outbound EDI Shipping Schedule (Outbound 862/DELJIT)

You can send your vendors electronic shipping schedule information about items you buy on blanket purchase orders using the Outbound 862/DELJIT transaction. To create the detailed shipping information for the purchased item, use the Purchase Order Blanket Lines and Purchase Order Blanket Releases forms. Then export this information to the vendor as an Outbound Planning Order (862/DELJIT).

  1. On the EDI Vendor Profiles record for the vendor, both the Generate Planned POs and the Export Blanket as Ship Sched check boxes must be selected. If these check boxes are not selected, the system does not generate the shipping information or export 862/DELJIT transactions.
  2. Release the required quantities and the dates on which you need them against the existing blanket purchase order.
  3. Run the Purchase Order Report, which extracts the EDI blanket order release information into the EDI database tables.
  4. To export your transaction information to the translator, use the EDI Transaction Unload Routine.
