We are getting an error from Stryker because they are sending a Discount Date on their invoices but there is no discount provided. Is anyone else familiar with this? I have not been able to locate anything for ED40 that could ignore this date.

Without seeing the full 810 EDI file, it's hard for me to offer much advise. I often use a program called EDI Notepad that helps out a LOT. It will give me the errors with the file and then I can manipulate the file to get it set properly. This helps me work with the vendor that is passing the file (or our EDI VAN) and they can often add/remove fields I request.

Apologize ... I did misspeak. They are sending us a discount percentage without a discount date, not the other way around. The segment in question from what I can tell is the ITD segment I copied, but I have attached the full EDI file.

 

ITD element 3 should be the discount percent and element 4 should be a date. In this case, I have 0 and blank.

Should GHX be stripping the '0' discount percent before sending, or is there a piece of the AP setup that causes this to be an error?

As far as I can tell, from EDI standards, it should not be required. Where are you seeing the error? If it's in Lawson, what is the error stating?

That's what I thought too. I've attached the screenshot our AP staff sent me.
