Integration with the ERP system is a very simple case of drag
and drop of fields into the document structure using the standard
TaskCentre drag and drop functionality.
When you are creating an EDI file that you want to send,
you create a query in the standard drag and drop query
generator in TaskCentre. This produces a recordset that contains
the data we want to use in the EDI Document. In the Interchange
Editor you drag the fields from the recordset into the document
placing them where you need them to create the EDI file.
On the other hand, when you receive an EDI file and need to
import that, you define the recordset in the EDI tool and drag
fields from the recordset into the Interchange Editor to place data
from the file into the recordset. The recordset can subsequently be
imported into any of the ERP systems the TaskCentre connects
to.
The recordsets can also be read and written to eg. XML files to
be treated by some other tool.
