HOW TO IMPORT EDI DATA VIA A SCRIPT

This was way hard to find out how to do!!!!


QUESTION:
HOW TO IMPORT EDI DATA VIA A SCRIPT IN TRUSTEDLINK

ANSWER:

1. Select 'Execute External Program' from the scripting options.

2. Browse for and select the 'IMPEDI.EXE' file from the BIN directory.

3. Manually add appropriate parameters to the UOP script command that was just generated.

**Parameters that will have to be manually added to the line in the UOP script are as follows:

           Parameter ( /unattended) tells software not to bring up menus during operation,   
           Parameter (c:\file.edi) is the location of the file to be imported 
           Parameter (,Y) tells software to wait until this function is finished to continue in script 
 

After manually appending the UOP script with the proper parameters, it should look similar to this:

EXECUTE, C:\Program Files\Inovis\TrustedLink\BIN\IMPEDI.EXE /UNATTENDED C:\FILE.EDI,Y
