Dynamics 365 For Finance and Operations - Defining EDI Segments to Export within Transaction Manager

Learn how to use Transaction Manager Default Lookups to control which EDI segments from a Purchase Order (850) are exported into the XML consumed by Dynamics 365 For Finance and Operations.

Written by Micah A. Parker

Product: Dynamics 365 For Finance and Operations


When a Purchase Order (850) is received in Transaction Manager, not every EDI Segment within that transaction is automatically included in the XML file consumed by Dynamics 365 For Finance and Operations. The Transaction Manager Defaults allow you to define which EDI Segments are pushed from the received Purchase Order (850) into that XML — giving you direct control over what data lands in Finance and Operations upon export.

Each Default Lookup value corresponds to a conditional check built into the Export Definition within Mapping Manager. These conditions evaluate the qualifier value entered in the Default, and when a match is found on the incoming EDI Segment, that segment is included in the exported XML.

Any modifications to the conditions themselves require TrueCommerce Support.


Configuring Which EDI Segments to Export


You will need to configure the EDI Segments for each Trading Partner separately within Transaction Manager so that it knows which data to map onto the XML file that is sent to Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations. You can make these configurations within the Defaults screen of your Trading Partner settings.

Navigate: Trading Partners → (Trading Partner) → Translations → Defaults

Find: Desired Export Option

Enter: Qualifier or YES for desired Option

Save

Tip: You can view the Raw EDI of a received transaction by navigating to the Inbox or Received folder in Transaction Manager to identify which qualifier values your Trading Partner is transmitting.


Export Options


The following Default Lookups are driven by qualifier values. When the qualifier on an incoming EDI Segment matches the value entered in the corresponding Default, that segment is exported into the XML.

To enter a value, type the qualifier code directly into the Default Lookup field. To include multiple qualifiers, separate each with a comma (e.g., ST, BT).

Default Lookup

Notes

Export DTM

DTM01

For the Grocery Products Purchase Order (875), use qualifier G6201

Export N1

N101

Example: Enter ST, BT, or ST, BT to export one or multiple N1 Segment types

Export N9

Enter the qualifier found in the N9 Segment transmitted by your Trading Partner

Export PER

PER01

Enter the qualifier found in the PER Segment transmitted by your Trading Partner

Export REF

REF01

SDQ-Based Default Lookups


The following Default Lookups control the export of SDQ Segment loops. Unlike qualifier-based defaults, these are activated by entering a value of YES — enabling the corresponding SDQ loop to be included in the exported XML.

Export SDQ Pack Loop

Each Trading Partner Map is unique in its definitions. You may need to have our Support Team adjust the integration's backend configuration to properly align with your Trading Partner Map's definitions. Please open a support case for any required changes to the Export Definition conditions.
