[Noreen Fujita-Sacco]

We’re on NAV 2018 using Lanham EDI.

Amazon DF requires a case sensitive Purchase Order #. I can bring in case sensitive Mixed and see it in the raw file but in the External Document No field on the Sales Order and any lists, the PO # is changed to Upper. I can try mapping an EDI In as case sensitive for outbound documents. However, we have PO # validation. I’ve manually tested entering a Sales Order with a different mixed case PO# and receive the duplicate PO alert. This would also cause an issue searching for a particular PO #.

Does anyone know how that validation is affected for EDI? That is, will it validate against the incoming raw file’s Mixed value?

Has anyone resolved the Mixed case PO # for search or manual entry?

Thank you!

Hi Noreen,

Thank you for your question! As you said, using an EDI In on the inbound mapping for the PO # will preserve the case sensitive number and the same EDI In can be mapped on the outbound document. The External Document No. field is a code field which is why the value is stored as all upper case – with the duplicate PO check mapping tool in use, it would give you the duplicate error if the same letter/number combination is used as the PO # regardless of case. I have never seen Amazon do this, however, and it would be easy to check the PO #s against each other in the rare case that it happens. If you’d prefer to turn off the duplicate PO # check, remove the “Validation Type” field = “Purchase Order No.” on the External Document No. element mapping. I hope this helps!?????

Thank you, Margaret.

We wouldn’t want to turn off validation. It’s good to know you’ve never seen a duplicate, though.

Hi, Noreen-

I agree with the EDI In as a second conditional, and you could also add a third conditional to map it to Nav-E.D.I Recieve Doc Hdr Info into one of the Text Fields. You can use this to map out of if you need to print case sensitive on a UCC label or another document.
