Setting up an Alternate Warehouse SXAPI Operator business rule

Before you set up the Alternate Warehouse SXAPI Operator business rule, you must create the SX.api Alt Whse operator in SA Operator Setup. This operator record and business rule must be set up even if you do not use the SX.api OE Full Order Maintenance function to receive customer orders.

The SX.api Alt Whse operator can be the same as your SX.api default operator, but it is not required. If you use the SX.api default operator, you must change the password as described in the instructions.

  1. Select System Administrator > Setup > Operator.
  2. Create a new operator with any operator initials, but the password must be altwhsebill. This password is the key to processing orders automatically through SX.api.
  3. Set the function security for Sales Order Entry and Sales Bill WT Orders Report to 4 (Add) or 5 (Delete).
  4. Select System Administrator > Setup > Business Rule.
  5. In the Category field, select SXAPI.
  6. In the Rule field, select Alternate Warehouse SXAPI Operator.
  7. Click New.
  8. In the Rule Value field, specify the alternate warehouse operator initials that you created in SA Operator Setup.
  9. Click Save.
