Outbound 856 (ASN) Sales Delivery In Sage X3

By | September 25, 2023

Modern supply chain management requires the creation of Advanced Shipping Notices (ASNs) for outbound sales deliveries to ensure effortless communication and cooperation between suppliers and customers. The 856 Out (ASN) module which we have designed in Sage X3 provides a simplified method for reducing this process. Businesses may easily generate ASNs by utilizing this module, which improves the accuracy and effectiveness of managing sales shipments within the Sage X3 system. We are going to review the features and advantages of the 856 Out (ASN) module in this article, highlighting how it improves the accuracy and efficiency of outbound sales deliveries in Sage X3.

Key Features:

 1.Export Button:

A dedicated button will be added to the Sales Delivery Screen.

This button will initiate the export process when clicked.

2.EDI File Export:

Upon clicking the Export Button, the system will generate an EDI file.

The EDI file will be associated with the respective delivery, ensuring accurate reference.

3.Export Status Flag:

To track the export status of EDI files, a flag will be displayed on the Sales Delivery Screen.

This flag will indicate whether the EDI file has been successfully exported or not.

4.Local Drive Export:

The generated EDI file will be exported to a designated location on the local drive of the system.

This ensures easy access and retrieval.

5.Defined Location Sending:

The system will support sending the exported EDI file to a predefined location. This can be a remote server, partner system, or any destination specified in the configuration.

6.Archive Creation:

As a backup and record-keeping measure, an archive of exported EDI files will be automatically created.

This archive ensures historical data is readily available for reference or auditing purposes.

7.Bulk ASN Export:

In addition to exporting EDI files for individual deliveries, we will provide an option to export Advanced Shipping Notices (ASNs) for multiple deliveries simultaneously.

This bulk export capability saves time and enhances efficiency.

8.User-Specific Customization:

Administrators can configure this feature to be user-specific. This means that only authorized users will have access to the export functionality.

User-specific settings can be tailored to meet specific user roles and responsibilities.

9.Customer-Specific Customization:

To cater to the diverse needs of different customers, the system will allow customization of EDI export settings on a per-customer basis.

This ensures that EDI files are generated according to each customer’s unique requirements.

Benefits of using 856 EDI (ASN):-

Efficiency: Streamlines the EDI export process, reducing manual effort and potential errors.

Traceability: Provides clear visibility into the status of EDI file exports.

Data Integrity: Ensures accurate referencing of EDI files to respective deliveries.

Backup: Creates an archive for data retention and auditing purposes.

Customization: Offers flexibility with user and customer-specific settings.

Time Savings: Bulk ASN export reduces time spent on repetitive tasks.

This feature enhancement will significantly improve the EDI file management process within the Sales Delivery module, benefiting both users and customers by enhancing efficiency and data accuracy.

In conclusion, Sage X3’s 856 Out (ASN) module makes creating ASNs simpler, improving accuracy and efficiency in the management of sales exports. This improvement increases EDI file handling, providing users and clients with better efficiency as well as information exactness.
