A Sales Order Process is one in which you receive Purchase Orders (850s) from a Trading Partner and in return send an Invoice (810), Purchase Order Acknowledgement (855), and an Advance Ship Notice (856) in return.
While there are other documents that you may send and receive - these are the most typical for Sales Order Process.
Purchase Orders (850)
Receiving Purchase Orders
When you receive a new Purchase Order (850) from your Trading Partner they'll show up in the Inbox of Transaction Manager ready to be exported. From here you can open the transaction within Transaction Manager and view the data provided by your Trading Partner.
FTP/Local Directory
Whenever you perform an Export on an inbound Purchase Order an XML File will be generated - depending on how your system is configured it will either send it to an FTP or a Local Directory where it will sit waiting to be picked up by Dynamics NAV either by a Job Queue which acts like the Transaction Manager Scheduler system for Dynamics NAV and will run at a set time to process or manually through the Import Inbound Files functionality.
Sales Order
Once you've processed your Inbound Purchase Order through the Inbound Messages task you can then view your Sales Order within Dynamics NAV by select the Show Document button within the Inbound Messages window.
Navigate: Departments → TrueCommerce → EDI → Import & Export → Inbound Messages
