The EDI Imports will execute the following Sales Order Entry triggers:
-
After sales order added
-
After sales order merchandise line added
-
After sales order header updated
-
At 'End Order..' before showing End Order window
There is also a specific and generic trigger for after each import/export which can be setup in the EDI trigger maintenance.
There is a potential problem with using non-NetExpress triggers during EDI imports. If the trigger program expects to be able to add a line to the sales order, a conflict can occur. The problem stems from the fact that the import does not wait for a non-NetExpress based trigger to complete before continuing on. Therefore, the EDI system could run a trigger after merchandise line 1 is added and then continue forward and add line 2 before the trigger has a chance to complete. The only solution is to rewrite the trigger as a NetExpress program, or to modify the trigger to run at "End Order" instead of after each line is added.
