You should not have to make any changes. Your VAN should be able to set
this up for you. That is one of the reasons to use a VAN, eliminate the
need to develop and maintain unique means of communication per trading
partner. If your VAN is unable to set this up, please feel free to give us
a call.

>
>
> I posted this in a couple of programming-related newsgroups,
> then realized I
> should have tried here as well
> (please excuse what may seem patronizing explanations for the
> EDI-savvy):
>
> One of my clients just received a notice from one of their
> customers that
> instead of using "traditional" EDI (Electronic Data
> Interchange) to send
> purchase orders, that customer is now going to require its
> vendors to log in
> to a web site, enter an ID and a password, and click on a
> link to download a
> file containing the orders.
>
> While this is probably really cool for my client's customer,
> I just invested
> a lot of time (and the client's money) in automating a daily
> retrieval and
> processing of EDI documents from conventional VANs, and the
> whole idea of
> automating the process was to let the orders get picked up each night,
> *unattended*.
>
> Is anyone aware of any package software avaialble to automate
> the scenario
> above?
>
> Names, phone numbers, web sites and yes, even direct e-mail from
> (NON-CUSTOM) vendors of products will be welcomed and appreciated.
