I want to be able to run a multistep job that will create and release POs, create EDI orders and then transmit all these POS at once to GHX. Does anybody know if this is possible or do I need to schedule a PO120 and an ED501 for each vendor?
PO100 for vendor A and location A and B, vendor B location A, Vendor C location D
PO120 same as above
ED501 - take all the EDI orders created by PO120 and transmit to GHX

Yes - We have EDIDLY (EDI Daily) that runs every 30 minutes.
Step 1 is PO120 with the following parameters:
Company: 1 (we only have 1)
Draft (N)
Selection Tab - all blank
PO Selection - all blank
Documents Tab: EDI Sub Tab
Issue Y
Form 2 (Sequential File)
This grabs all Released, Not Issued POs set for E (EDI) and issues them.
Step 2 is the ED501.
Works beautifully.

Do I need a PO120 for each vendor we have setup with EDI? We have about 15 vendors

No you would not. In PO120 there is an EDI tab that you would enter the values needed to select PO's that are destined for EDI. In the Selection tab leave the vendor field blank.

No you would only need a job per Company with the vendor left blank.

OK, so I can add a PO120 for a company leave vendor blank and that will create a POEDI with all the vendors released by PO100, right?

As long as the POs have the PO Issue Method flag set to issue via EDI and your PO120 job is set up as Kat described above, then yes.

Thanks for the info. We just went live with taking a BN106 -> EDI 834, and the boss is having us look at PO120 EDI.
