    Line item note not getting IMD info

     

    • Product: Aleph
    • Product Version: 20, 21, 22, 23
    • Relevant for Installation Type: Dedicated-Direct, Direct, Local, Total Care

     

    Description:
    In the edi_in_attr tab header, it says "FTX, IMD and DTM tags will be loaded into Z75-I-NOTE depending on the available room," and in KB10173 it says "Currently FTX is loaded into Z75_I_NOTE appended by DTM, IMD and PIA tags." 

    We're getting confusing results.

    The incoming EDI record has both PIA and IMD fields, but it appears that only the PIA info is going into the line item Note field. Based on this, I'm guessing that there might not be enough room, but z75_I_NOTE field has a length of 200, so it is large enough to hold both the PIA and IMD info.


    From edi_in_attr header:
    1 EDI-IN-FTX-ONLY 
    ! N (default) = In serial INVOIC messages FTX, IMD and DTM tags will be loaded 
    ! into Z75-I-NOTE depending on the available room. 
    ! Y = Only FTX will be loaded into Z75-I-NOTE.
     

    Ours is set to "N".

    Relevant Incoming EDI:
    PIA+5+0702-7818:IS' 
    PIA+5S+0702-7818(20120901);1-F:SI' 
    PIA+5E+0702-7818(20130831);1-F:SI' 
    IMD+F+JTI+:::Atlantis - Women?'s Studies Journal' 
    IMD+L+085+:::Sep 2012' 
    IMD+L+086+:::Aug 2013' 

    Corresponding XML:
    <start-date>20120901</start-date> 
    <end-date>20130831</end-date> 
    <title-of-journal>Atlantis - Women?&apos;s Studies Journal</title-of-journal> 
    <journal-invoicing-period-start-volume-or-issue>Sep 2012</journal-invoicing-period-start-volume-or-issue> 
    <journal-invoicing-period-end-volume-or-issue>Aug 2013</journal-invoicing-period-end-volume-or-issue> 

    Resulting line item Note: "Invoicing period:20120901-20130831."

    What am I missing? Can you tell me why Note does not include the IMD info?

     

    Resolution:
    [From site:] 

    Removing the PIA+5S and PIA+5E fields from a new sample file of invoices resulted in the IMD+L fields being loaded into the line item note field, which is what we want.
