Introduction

Application EDI-Profiles enables activation, configuration and mappings of EDI interfaces. Depending on the interface, the mappings can be set for partners, charge types, UNLocode, containers or products.

Description

The overview displays maintained entries with their respective interface type. Using New and edit entries can be modified.

EDI Profile edit

Code

Unique codes to identify the EDI profile. The code can mostly be chosen freely, but some interfaces require a specific code.

Reference type ID

The reference type ID determines which kind of data serves as identifying reference. In this example, DQ is an external reference so incoming data is selected by this reference. Another example can be PTT which selects by shipment number. Which reference type ID is selected depends on the interface.

Attention

There is no validation regarding spelling or availability of the reference type. Setup of the initial EDI profile should only be done by users trained in Scope EDI communication.

Type of Interface

The kind if interface can be selected per Drop-Down. The following interface are currently available:

  • n/a
  • Generic
  • FCL Logisitk
  • WinWeb Connect
  • alH4
  • TOCS Interface
  • Aramex
  • TNT GL+
  • Sovex
  • Sovex Line Haul
  • Sovex Special
  • TTH/TTL

Most of these interfaces are customer specific interfaces, for our Scope generic interfaces the option Generic is used.

Contact EMail

In case an interface creates an error job in Scope, an email can be sent to the contact email address maintained in this field. One example would be missing EDI mappings.


Address mappings

Table address mappings displays maintained partner mappings for interface. New partner can be mapped using the Scope partner selection and the external ID. External ID is the ID known by the recipient of the interface.

In this example, Scope Partner A-TRANS is mapped to value 1234. 1234 is the "name" of the partner in the recipients interface.

A mapping can be used for Inbound (incoming) or Outbound (outgoing) data. At least one type must be selected. Additional IDs are only used for inbound data.
 

Charge Type Mappings

If the interface supports transmission of charge types, the charge types can be mapped in this dialog. Scope charge type can be selected from the search (here: Airfreight) and mapped to an external value (here: 1234). 

A mapping can be used for Inbound (incoming) or Outbound (outgoing) data. At least one type must be selected. Additional IDs are only used for inbound data.

UNLocode Mappings

If the interface supports transmission of UNLocodes, the UNLocodes can be mapped in this dialog. Scope UNLOcodes can be selected from the search (here: USLAX) and mapped to an external value (here: LOSA).  

A mapping can be used for Inbound (incoming) or Outbound (outgoing) data. At least one type must be selected. Additional IDs are only used for inbound data.

Container Type mappings

If the interface supports transmission of container codes, the container codes can be mapped in this dialog. Scope container codes can be selected from the search (here: HARDTOP CONTAINER) and mapped to an external value (here: 40UP).  

A mapping can be used for Inbound (incoming) or Outbound (outgoing) data. At least one type must be selected. Additional IDs are only used for inbound data.

Product mappings

If the interface supports transmission of products, the products can be mapped in this dialog. Scope selling products can be selected from the search (here: Gold) and mapped to an external value (here: Aurum). 

A mapping can be used for Inbound (incoming) or Outbound (outgoing) data. At least one type must be selected. Additional IDs are only used for inbound data.


Export

Using function 'Export' a MS Excel file is created with the entries of the EDI profile.
