Settings > EDI > Mapping

This window contains a tab for each register in Opter whose data can be imported or exported via EDI. On each of the tabs, you can configure how information is transferred between the two systems.

Function

Description

Do not auto dispatch shipments before current time

: It is not possible for auto dispatching to allocate EDI orders to departing routes

: It is possible for auto dispatching to allocate EDI orders to departing routes.

Save EDI orders without price

Specify whether orders with no price, or with a price of 0 SEK, should be imported into Opter.

You can make exceptions for individual services using the Save EDI orders without price setting on the Orders and pricing tab in the service registry.

If you do not wish to receive an email every time Opter attempts to import an order without a price, uncheck Do not send common errors by email on the EDI transport.

Note In that case, you will not receive an email informing you that the EDI import has failed due to incorrect order, freight bill or parcel numbers, or because the order has already been invoiced. See also Do not send common errors by email.

Price items

In the EDI function, all price items across all price lists are treated as a single, comprehensive item register with links to the price lists, rather than each price list containing a number of unique price items.

Column

Description

Match code

The price item is matched using the code, not the price item’s database ID. Price items have unique database IDs for each price list, so if you match them by code, the price items do not need to be remapped every time a price list is copied, provided the price item has the same code in the new price list. You only need to configure this setting for either the import or the export, and it will be applied automatically during both import and export.

Price items that do not have a code cannot, of course, be matched by code. However, there is no need to remap them manually either, as price items without a code are only used for pricing services. The EDI function can only import/export manual prices and manual price items, and manual price items must have a code.
