Communication number

These are the communication methods for notifications and adjustments that you can specify:

  • Fax
  • EDI
  • Alternate EDI

These methods are maintained on an EFT notification. You can specify the same or different communication methods for notifications and adjustments. A communication method is required for pre-notifications and final notifications and adjustment documents. If you use the same communication methods for both, then only one number is required. If you use different methods, then two different numbers are required.

The first line of the flat file is the customer's communication number. The format of the communication number depends on the communication method that is specified on Customer.

For more information about the communication number types and formats, see the EDI for Supply Management User Guide.
