Outbound OP EDI Translation Update - Purpose

The Outbound OP EDI Translation Update program (ED040E) marks outbound Order Processing EDI transaction records to indicate whether the records have been processed by the translation software and sent via EDI.  Any records that have a blank status field are updated with a status of 'P' (processed).  The program also adds a date and time stamp to each processed record.

This program processes in three different modes:

1.             Update Sales Order Acknowledgment files (OP520AP1 and OP520AP2)
2.             Update Bill of Lading files (OP695AP1, OP695AP2 and OP695AP3)
3.             Update Invoice files (OP540AP1, OP540AP2, OP540AP3, and OP540AP4)

To update EDI Translation file records you may wish to place an additional program call (to the CL programs that call ED040E) in a batch job stream after the successful completion of a data translation program.  For example:
