We don't. The 860 is a manual process. Print it and have it reviewed. It is far too difficult to automate in most circumstances. i.e. perhaps the order has already left the building. Find out why 860's are being generated in the first place. If there is a solid business case (major trading partner, huge volumes) to implement integrated 860's then go for it. However, typically not done. And what the heck do you mean by "multiple customers"? One customer or multiple, same story. Unless you are talking about multiple entities within the originating organization, all with the ability to issue an 860 - don't even go there.

How quickly does it turn into paper? When major retailers change their orders about 20% of the time, is a touch-less perfect order possible? These questions and a brief example are posted on Spend Matters - http://www.spendmatters.com/index.cfm/2011/11/28/Is-There-Anyone-Still-Runni ng-EDI-Software David, Stephen, Michael, Todd, Rich, and the EDI-L gurus - How does a small company running EDI software and an antiquated ERP system handle the multiple 860 business process challenges? Is there a proper EDI way?
