Hi BernieO2022, the Foodstuffs full EDI process has several steps:
- download purchase orders from the Foodstuffs Exchange (and import/post as sales orders)
- Send Receive messages
- Acknowledge orders
- Send ASN (notice of shipment)
- Send invoices to the Exchange
MYOB have commenced an e-invoicing project, which addresses only the last step. Foodstuffs may be in discussion with them.
For version 19, I developed an external application capable of handling the previous steps, but only really used for the download and import of purchase orders as sales orders. This app would have to be completely re-written now to work with the new AccountRight.
The communication to/from AccountRIght has changed (from ODBC to API), but it is certainly possible for a 3rd party to develop an app with these functions. (Other than a file import function and the e-invoicing project, the core AccountRight program has no relevant functionality).
