LexiCom can also be set up as a polling process to read and write data from a specific directory or directories. To use LexiCom in this way, then you can set up a "FILE" method carrier for use by Lawson EDI. See the "Using FILE Method" for setup information.

Carriers or Hosts are defined in LexiCom. The communications parameters are defined in LexiCom. The EDI Carrier Setup (ED02.1) record provides Lawson EDI with parameters necessary to execute LexiCom for sending and receiving data.
