Purchase Orders (850s)
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.
You'll want to make sure that this particular order has its Partner Setup, Ship To Code, as well as all of its Item Translations configured.
O/E Order Entry
Once successfully Exported the Purchase Order will be moved into the Received folder within Transaction Manager and an Order Entry within Sage 300's O/E (Order Entry) Transactions module will be created.
Navigate: Order Entry → O/E Transactions → Order Entry
Select: Order Number (magnifying glass)

Invoices (810)
Invoices to be sent to your Trading Partner are created by Importing an O/E Invoice Entry from Sage 300 - these Invoice Entries are typically automatically created from an O/E Shipment Entry (see below) within Sage 300.
Creating an O/E Invoice Entry
You'll need to create a Invoice Entry in order to import it into Transaction Manager as an EDI Invoice (810). This is typically done by creating a new O/E Invoice Entry and setting the Shipment Number to a previously created Shipping Entry
Navigate: Order Entry → O/E Transactions → Invoice Entry
