Integrating Gentran with Macola

[sanjyadon]

I want to Integrate Gentran with Macola.
I am currently using Gentran Director for windows Ver 5.1.2 and Macola 7.5 . Could anyone guide me in integrating the two . I want to know how to create the files to export data from Gentran and how to import the same into Macola .
Thanks
Sanjeev

If you're still having problems let me know.

Checklist:
1. EDI module/package activated in MACOLA?
2. TP disk from MACOLA for your trading partners?
3. Setup start in Macola

EDI setup: EDI, Maintenance; EDI setup = this is where you fill in the 2 fields to assign directory of IMPORT and EXPORT of flat files TO-AND-FROM the gentran directory. Setup is done local where the GENTRAN app is located.

hope this helps.

Hello,
I was not fortunate enough to have the Gentran, I ended up designing my own translator and a special invoice/asn mapping tool to the TrustedLink forms format. Macola has excel spreadsheets of the breakdown for the ASN and invoices, you will need that unless you have a package from Macola for asn and invoice mapping. I had to slightly modify it because there was too much data being output from the file.
Make sure you get that spreadsheet if your doing it yourself.
