- UXPROD-531Getting issue details... STATUS
Problem(s):
- Libraries often create orders in their own LSP system to keep track of order commitments and manage receiving. If the library has no means of transmitting this data to the relevant vendors they would need to manually re-create these orders in a vendor system.
- Creating orders in a vendor system requires the library to first confirm in their own system whether they currently own the material or not. If the order can be creating in the library system and electronically sent it helps prevent the duplication acquisitions work.
Use cases:
- Library current communicates all orders with large vendors via EDI. This reduces the amount of duplicate effort needed to manage acquisitions through this vendor.
- Librarians need to confirm that they don't already own or have an outstanding or for the material they want to acquire. This is most easily done in the LSP system. Libraries will then check multiple vendors to compare pricing before acquisition.
Requirements:
- Generate EDIFACT format files based on FOLIO Orders
- Send files to specific location as specified in the Organization record
- Restrict what orders are sent based on order data (Eg. Acquisition method)
