Creating an inbound trading partner record from an existing outbound 850 record

Use this procedure to copy data from the existing outbound record into the new inbound record and set the Sender and Receiver values correctly. For example, the sender in the outbound 850 record is set to the Receiver in the new inbound record. This helps eliminate errors and makes it efficient to set up all trading partner transaction types.
