Mod #1671 Eggs Unlimited EDI

The Eggs Unlimited interface supports receiving EDI 940 warehouse shipping orders from a seller for fulfillment by an entrée enabled 3PL (third-party logistics provider).   Once the order is ready for shipment to the buyer’s location an EDI 945 Warehouse Shipping Advice will be returned to the seller to provide details of the order fulfillment.

Coordination of inventory transfer between the supplier and the 3PL will be handled outside of the EDI process.

The Eggs Unlimited EDI Import process is accessed from the entree Import utility using the “Eggs Unlimited” option. The utility imports a 940 Warehouse Shipping Order from Eggs Unlimited  and converts it to an entrée invoice.

Once the associated invoice has been printed, the 945 Warehouse Shipping Advice should be exported using the Export utility with the “Eggs Unlimited” option selected. Once exported no further edits to the entrée invoice will be allowed.
