Ordering via EDI

EDI kullanarak sipariş vermenin ilk adımı kitap satıcısının web sitesinde olur. Her satıcı farklı bir dil kullanacaktır, ancak siparişinizi kendi sitelerine yerleştirmeniz ve ardından MARC sipariş dosyasını indirmeniz gerekecektir. Görebileceğiniz bazı diller “sepet”, “sipariş”, “alışveriş sepeti” ve/veya “MARC sipariş” i içeriyordu. Bu MARC dosyasını bilgisayarınıza indirdikten sonra, Koha’ya giriş yapmak ve orada işlemi yapmak isteyeceksiniz.

In Acquisitions create a basket for the vendor you ordered from. Add your file to the basket by ordering from a new file.

Onay ekranından siparişinizle ilgili MARC dosyasındaki tüm verileri görürsünüz. Bütçe ve miktar gibi alanları dolu olarak görmüyorsanız MarcFieldsToOrder tercihinin doğru olarak ayarlandığından emin olun.

Tüm materyalleri sepete ekledikten sonra, ‘EDIFACT siparişini oluştur’ düğmesini tıklayabilirsiniz.

Sending the EDIFACT order

This will generate a pending file in the EDIFACT messages in Koha.

The pending files will be processed by the EDI cron job and sent to your vendor.

Ordering via EDI with quote files

If you have Quote files enabled you can place the order on the bookseller’s website and a Quote file will be automatically generated and made available to be collected and loaded to Koha. You will see the file listed in the EDIFACT messages in Koha with a status of ‘Received’. The basket will have been created and records and items added to the basket.

Once you have checked that the basket is correct you can click the ‘Create EDIFACT order’ button. The process then completes as for Sending the EDIFACT order above.

EDI invoicing

When the book vendor is done processing your files they will send an invoice via EDI as well. The EDI cron job will grab invoices and mark items found in the invoice as received and update your funds without any need for manual intervention.

If you set the EdifactInvoiceImport preference to ‘Don’t’ you can load invoice files manually.

EDIFACT messages

A log of all messages sent and received via EDIFACT can be found under EDIFACT messages.
