FA Reconciliation
To perform FA reconciliation, Module for EDI records each Group/Interchange EDI document that it sends and receives through Trading Networks. Whether it records a Group or an Interchange document depends on the EDI standard of the document.
* For ANSI X12, Module for EDI records each Group document that it sends or receives through Trading Networks.
* For UN/EDIFACT, Module for EDI records each Interchange-level document.
Module for EDI records information about these documents in the EDITRACKING table, which is a module-specific table in the Trading Networks database.
When Module for EDI receives the FA that corresponds to a Group/Interchange EDI document, the module updates the FA status for the Group/Interchange document in the EDITRACKING table.
* For ANSI X12, the FA is the 997 document, which acknowledges the group envelope and all of its contents.
* For UN/EDIFACT, the FA is the CONTRL message, which acknowledges an interchange envelope and all of its contents.
Important: For Module for EDI to be able to record information for Group/Interchange EDI documents and to update the FA status when the FA is sent or received, you must exchange the Group/Interchange EDI document and the FAs through Trading Networks. In addition, for the document to appear in the EDITRACKING table, the document must be persisted to Trading Networks, and the document must have both a sender ID and a receiver ID.
