About this Webinar

This webinar explains how to automatically create EDI 855 Purchase Order Acknowledgements from incoming EDI 850 Purchase Orders in Transaction Manager. It demonstrates how to activate the 855 transaction, configure automation at the trading‑partner level, and use templates to prefill required fields so acknowledgements generate without errors. It also reviews automation limits, common icons and errors, and best practices for deciding when auto‑send or manual review is appropriate.

Attendee Q&A for this presentation addresses versioning, auto‑creating multiple documents, when to disable auto‑send, handling exceptions, and determining when ERP integration is a better fit. See Q&A handout below.
