I have added the ED40 Vendor record and the I_NO_810_TERMS record to resolve these errors. (I'm following old documentation)

My AP manager re-ran the MA540 and the same invoices are showing the same 2 errors.

Does anyone else have any suggestions on how these can be corrected?

Do you have a tpid_I_VENDOR record for this trading partner?

If you don't want the 810s to determine the discount terms use this

List name: L1_MAP_INV_TERMS
Lawson Value: N
External Value: Tpid

Hi Jon!

Yes, I have the ED40 records in place. I found some bogus records tied to one of the vendors still getting the error. I eliminated them.

I added the Terms record you gave me.

I'll check now to see if that helped.

Thank you!!

Jon,

 Would the changes I made take time to make a difference? My MA540 report is still producing the same errors.

Did you delete the MA540CSV file and retranslate the 810?

Hi Jon,

  I'm trying to rerun invoices with Vendor is Required errors from back as far as September. I combined the first 7 into one file, but when I ran the ED502, I'm getting an error saying : Unable to get EDI configuration.

ERROR GETTING EDI CONFIG:

ERROR: Unable to open EVENT file.

System error A file descriptor does not refer to an open file.

I would include a screen shot but when I try to attach her on LawsonGuru, I'm being prompted for a user name and pw. Lawsonguru credentials are not working.

Is the EDI Commserver running? Is the translation engine (ED330) running?

I've been getting that same thing when I try to upload something to the forum.

ED330 is running.

How do I verify that the EDI Commserver is running?

I don't think that ED330 would run if the commserver was not running. I always ask our programmer to check it. There's probably some command she issues from the command line but I don't know what that is. I've asked but she's gone home for the day.

Thanks Jon!

I was able to get in touch with someone who checked and said everything was up and running. However, they got a different error than I did running the same ED502 and using the same file.

I checked another file that was processed successfully and the only thing I noticed was that there was a ~ missing from the end. The message he got was that a Trailer Terminator could not be found.

My error points to not being able to make a connection to even process the file.

I'm wondering now if it's related to my security and what I may/may not be allowed to run.

Yep. Looks like a security issue.
