Re: COM offline orders

Thanks for the repsonses. A couple of questions though.

1) How do you pull an order in individually? The only thing I have seen on
the screen is: Process offline orders . . . . Y (Y, N)

So it will process everything in the offline order file.

2) On Chris comment that I can call the AMBE8XFR and pass the corresponding
order token. Would this bypass the need to take option #2 Enter Orders from
Offline Files? If so this would be nice because we could automatically add
the new order in COM from our custom programs.

Thanks again for all the help!

Jeff,

You can process the COM Offline Order Load by individual order or by
"batches" by using the "Offline order token" found at the beginning
of all of the offline order files. (MBG8CPP, MBG9CPP, MBHCCPP, etc)

Then you would call AMBE8XFR and pass the corresponding order token
in the LDA. (positions 4-14)

I guess you might call AMBE8XFR the API.

Subject: [MAPICS-L] COM offline orders

Hi everyone.
We are doing a lot with COM offline orders now. I really do not like
how MAPICS processes all offline orders at the same time. I would
like to bypass the offline order import process and have it update
the COM files automatically by calling an API or something like
that. Has anyone done this? Or have experience like this?

If we could keep the current offline files and then just call an API
that would be ideal. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks

Jeff Williams
