We’re in Business Central, V24.

We want to restrict permissions to limited users. We’ve found that even when staff is not allowed to change permissions via accustomed means of User Setup or General Ledger Setup, they can because BC functionality for Error Messages with Recommendations suggests an action to “fix” the error and allows them to…

Thank you, Lewis. I’d still be interested to hear from others who have implemented EDI other than Lanham.

I’m interested to hear what ISVs are available to handle EDI in BC. Which have you implemented and what have your experiences been?

Hi, Charlotte.

Is this resolved in BC?

Many thanks, Charlotte!

Sorry for the tardy reply. I’ve been ill. Hope to see you at one of the cons.

We’re on NAV 2018 using Lanham EShip for UPS packages. We implemented the Paperless Invoice and it is mostly working. In UPSLink, the checkbox is on the FastTab Contract Services. On the UPS Option Page Card for UPS Standard, on FastTab International for setting Commercial Invoice, we selected Paperless Invoice.

Occasionally, NAV prints only…

Thank you, Ari and Cliff.

Thank you, Cliff.

I need to estimate a reasonable cost and timeline for an implementation and determine whether customization will be needed.

For NAV 2018 with Lanham EDI, has anyone implemented Amazon’s Direct Fulfillment shipping label API for use with AMZ Transportation Services?

Hello, all.

I found another piece of the puzzle. There is only a table and table data available to create a web service for the Item Attribute Mapping when I use the wizard. I’ve been told not to use tables. How would I create a web service for this? Screenshot is of all available objects for Item Attr*

Thank you, Kris.

I created the web service as a page. When I ask for a Query, I receive an alert that the field Object ID of table Web Service Aggregate contains a value that cannot be found. Are Query and Query Page the same thing under Object Type?

And thank you, Leanne!

Here is an example of the connecting table that works as an export in Config Pkg, but not as a web service. The mapping table 7505 shows Items with the attribute and value, but not as a web service. Thanks for any other thoughts you may have.

Thank you, Meenakshi.

We’re on the same page as far as process is concerned. My issue is that when I look at the web service for the connecting table, there is no data.

Thanks, Lewis, for your response, too.

Hello, All.

I hope everyone had a successful Summit. Does anyone have feedback for this issue now that there’s been time to regroup after travel?

Hello, All.

We are on NAV 2019. I want to report out on some of the Item Attributes. When I run a config package, I see the tables for Item Attribute (7500), Attribute Value (7501), and Attribute Value Mapping (7505). 7505 shows the Table ID, eg, 27 for Item, as well as the Item Number, Attribute ID, and Attribute Value ID. I’m able to report…

Fascinating the many different ways a thing can be accomplished in NAV.

I have never heard of a numeric document number for a shipping label. To be clear, this is not the GS1-128. In the testing info online the request is SLR and label is SL.

The Navision Document List in that new screenshot is the same list I sent yesterday.

Hi, Lewis.

Thanks for your response. Your example is how I set up a test XML yesterday when I was checking out this functionality. I hope below clarifies.

Where I am stuck is setup of the document before I get to mapping. For example, I could use a generic document for the import. However, there is no corresponding document type for a label.…

With NAV 2018 and Lanham EDI, I see no options in EDI to set up XML to send requests for shipping labels and receive back via XML Base64.

I have tried setting up another Template for XML, however, I don’t see or maybe I don’t recognize the document SL in the EDI document list. Here’s the document list attached.

Has anyone used Lanham EDI for…

In NAV 2018 using Lanham EDI, I’m mapping an incoming 850 TD5 element to the Sales Order (Header) field Residential Delivery when appropriate. The TD5 shows ‘ZZ’ in 07 and ‘RES’ in 08. I set a conditional for those elements and since Residential Delivery is a Boolean, I’m using Substitute Value. There’s no data Type ‘Boolean’, so it’s set…

We have the solution you worked on with our VAR, Margaret. Thank you! Would you please confirm if this is a hotfix that’s applied to all future NAV 2018 updates for Lanham EDI or whether this was a customization.

Hi, Margaret.

In this instance, it’s showing the items on the 856 out of sequence with the 850. It should be SKU 021563105254, then 0215631368086, then 852579006699.

Good morning, Margaret.

Thank you for your ongoing support. Did you receive any information from our VAR? I was unable to copy you as I don’t have your email. Attached is the 856 which should be LIN*1*SK*021563105254, LIN*2*SK*021563368086, LIN*3**SK*852579006699. That is the sequence of the 850.

Thank you, Margaret.

My next move is to look into the Packing Rule Prioritization. I do have an open ticket with our VAR and will have them contact Lanham next week. I believe they’re already away for Memorial Day.

I’m not sure what you mean by BOL>>ASN Summary. Let me know if the attachment is not what you want. FYI, I am using HL Ship with…

Thank you, Margaret.

BTW, this is AZM Drop Ship. Here are the screenshots.

Thank you, Lewis.

I responded to this last night. If you received anything from me directly, that was my mistake.

Thank you, Lewis.

That’s what I thought, but it’s not working for me on the 856. It does work on the 855 PO1 and 810 on IT1. Screenshots are attached.

Any other ideas perhaps related to Packing Rule which is…

On a Lanham EDI with NAV 2018 I need the sequencing of items on 856 to match the sequencing on the 850. How is this best done?

Also, the ASN Ship-Order-Item-Pack wants Item only once but packs individually. I’ve suppressed Ship by bypassing segment if HL Level Code is not blank. Here’s how the 856 should look.…

Many thanks, Charlotte! I am much further along today with your help and am able to submit for approval and work through errors. Creating the ship-to was a major breakthrough.

Thanks, again, Charlotte! The CTT is working. I’m having more issues with the hierarchical settings. Still testing and will report back shortly.

Thank you, Charlotte!

Yes, we’re on Lanham EDI.

I have the hierarchical rule set as shipment-order-item-package and applied to customer card. Everything is brought over correctly from the 850 to the SO. . We’re bringing in addresses to the sales order as these are drop-ship. Nav automatically flags these as “custom address” on the SO. I…

I agree with Lewis. There are a total of 6 units for 3 different items on the order. I’ll find out when I submit for approval.

In Dynamics NAV 2018 is anyone familiar with setting an ASN with HL priority Order-Item-Package? There are settings under the Packing Rule. But I don’t have mapping instructions for this or how they tie to the 856 HL setups. Here is a sample with multiple items and packages from the trading partner. I will say the CTT doesn’t look right to me.…

If you mean the BOL as an EDI ASN, that can be mapped. For example, where the 856 BSN requires the vendor internal shipment number I’ve used Origin Navision, NAV Table Sales Shipment Header, Field No.

Oh, good grief. I set up the packing rule and somehow it wasn’t applied to the customer card. Mea culpa! Thank you all for your responses! I can continue testing.

Thanks, Ruthie.

I did set codes up with defaults on both the Status Codes page and the 856 Export tab. however, I left Order Shipped and Item Shipped blank because we’re using Order/Item Shipped Complete and Order/Item Backorder Status Codes. Are those required and I should duplicate the Complete codes?

Something else is wrong because NAV…

Read more

Hi, Lewis.

There can be status codes on an 856. This customer requires we send ASN as a final confirmation when shipped complete as well as notifying of a backordered item cancelling the entire order if any one item is not available. Status codes for 856 are in the same place as those for 855. Just choose a different EDI Doc No. and then…

Hello, all.

Before I map this document, is anyone able to confirm that to return header and line status codes on an 856 I need to use the E_SLSSTA document instead of the E_SLSASN.

Thank you!

Confirming this is working. Thank you, all!

Nice to connect with you again, Ruthie. I hope you’re well.

Thank you, all. I’ll use Ruthie’s suggestion and report back.

We’re using Lanham EDI with NAV 2018 and don’t see a setting to automatically release and export the 855. Is anyone familiar with these settings and able to point us in the right direction?

Thank you!

Hello, Aaron.

I can’t get the link to work. The error message is Sorry, we couldn’t find that page. Search wasn’t successful either. What might I be doing wrong?

Yes, thank you both. I have already reached out to Lanham.
