Turning FA Reconciliation On or Off
FA reconciliation is enabled on a partner pair (sender/receiver) or group type basis.
For partner pairs, you define whether you want to reconcile FAs using the
FAReconciliation EDITPA variable. Set this variable to On if you want
Module for EDI to reconcile and auto-generate FAs based on partner pairs; set it to Off if you do not. If you want to turn FA reconciliation on or off for all partners, set the
FAReconciliation EDITPA variable in the default EDITPA and leave
FAReconciliation blank in all partner-specific EDITPAs.
For group types, you also define whether you want to reconcile FAs using the
FAReconciliation EDITPA variable. In addition, you can define how the FA for different group types is reconciled using the
FAGeneration/DocumentSettings/autoGenerateFA and
FAGeneration/DocumentSettings/groupType EDITPA variables. The following table summarizes the use cases for FA reconciliation of group types.
When FAReconciliation is set to... | And the FAGeneration/DocumentSettings variables are... | Module for EDI... |
true | Not present | Reconciles the FA for all groups |
true | Present | Reconciles the FA for each group according to the values in the FAGeneration/DocumentSettings variables |
false | Not present | Does not reconcile FAs |
false | Present | Does not reconcile FAs |
