Summary

Orderful now supports multiple Guideline variants to help you complete guidelines for complex transactions such as an 856.

Creating a Guideline and adding multiple items

Clicking "New Guideline" will now bring up the Guideline Structure Editor, which you can use to select relevant loops or segments that you need. To add variants, simply click the "+" and variants will appear. To remove a variant, you can click the "-" button.

Summary

We've added a new way to create and customize your guidelines using the Guideline Structure Editor. Say goodbye to marking entire loops and segments as not used to remove them from your guideline, and use this instead to pick and choose the items that you'll need in your guideline!

Editing a Guideline with the Guideline Structure Editor

Click on any Guideline that you wish to edit, and then select the "Edit Guideline Structure" button. A window will open that allows you to select and de-select specific loops or segments.

Summary

Summary

Organizations often have more than one ISA ID that they use to send EDI transactions. With this release, we're happy to announce that Orderful now supports multiple ISA IDs per organization.

Just as before, a 'relationship' in Orderful continues to exist between two organizations, but enabling a relationship now means that documents can be transmitted between any of the sending or receiving party's ISA IDs. Any EDI guidelines that have been created for the sender or receiver will apply, regardless of which ISA ID is being used – which means that you only need to set them up once.

If your organization only uses one ISA ID, you don't need to change anything with your existing workflow. If you'd like to add a second ISA ID, you can do that under the new 'EDI Accounts' option under your organization's settings, as shown below.

If you'd like to view all the ISA IDs being used by your trading partners, you can do so under the 'Relationships' link by clicking on an individual relationship.

Rule logs are a new Orderful feature meant to make it easier for you to troubleshoot a Relationship Rule or Transaction Type Rule. Now, whenever you are unsure about why or how a rule was applied to a property in your transaction, we show you a step by step evaluation of how the rule was executed. This is especially useful when a rule isn’t giving you the results you expect or when a rule is giving you an error.

Viewing Rule Logs for a Transaction

  1. Click on the transaction
  2. Go to the Rules Editor
  3. Click the dropdown in the right hand side pane
  4. Select 'Rule Logs'
  5. Click 'Show Execution Log' for the rule you're trying to investigate

Reading Rule Logs

This is an example of the step by step evaluation. Expressions are evaluated from the inside out to reflect the logical order of execution. In this example the first three steps resolve references that will become the arguments used in step 4.

Notifications allow you to stay informed of significant events in Orderful. In this release, we are introducing three types of Email Notifications:

  • Invalid Transaction
  • Failed Transaction
  • Rejected Transaction

These Notification types track a Transaction state change in which the new state of a particular transaction is Invalid, Failed, or Rejected. An Email Notification will be sent to users who subscribed to any of those Notification types via their Account's settings panel.

Subscribing to Notifications

To subscribe to Notifications, go to Settings and click on Notifications (under User Settings). You'll then be able to subscribe to any of the available Notification types by checking the box associated with the desired Notification type and clicking "Save Changes". To unsubscribe, uncheck the box associated with the desired Notification type and click "Save Changes".

Subscribing to Notifications

In this example, a user who has subscribed to Invalid Transaction Notifications is notified by email that a transaction sent to a trading partner is Invalid because it does not meet the validation requirements of the trading partner. Read more about Transaction Statuses here.
