The reason for the question: We are working with another company to electonically transmit order files for a mutual client. The other company has a system that is similar but not identical to EDI. Our system houses the client's ordering system.
Whenever an order is placed, a text file is appended (or created, depending on if it existed or not). I'm working on a scheduled template right now to transfer the file to the other company's system. In their words they want me to "append to the order file throughout the day", however, they only want me to "upload new orders". If I am hearing them correctly, they want me to upload only the changes to the text file, appending it to the file that is there. Since I'm appending to the existing file on my system, I can simply FTP the entire file every time, sending both new and orders processed for the day. (*sigh*) and I get to play tour guide for my mom and two aunts. Oh joy!
