This import process can be used at the time of during a Purchase Order and LCT Receipt to quickly import an ASN (Advanced Shipping Notice).

Typically, a packing list (known as the ASN) can be obtained from your suppliers. This is a physical file known as an advanced shipping notice (ASN) file. When the supplier ships to you, they generate an ASN file to be picked up by an EDI messaging service and later dropped off on your side. When the shipment arrives, you can import the file in SYSPRO, pre-populate the receipt, and then process it. This is a good step towards automating the EDI connectivity between your supplier and your the DATASCOPE receiving department.
