Customers who use the X12 format, or have a Trading Partner who uses it, can now filter Transactions by Reference Identifiers. Currently the only supported Reference Identifiers are:

• Interchange Control Number
• Functional Group Control Number
• Transaction Set Control Number

You can access these filters in 3 different ways:

1. The Transactions page now contains columns for each of these numbers.
2. Additionally, if you click on Filters icon you will see the new "Reference Identifiers" filters at the bottom of the Filters dialogue:

3. The List Transactions API has also been updated with the following query parameters:

• referenceIdentifier
• senderInterchangeReferenceIdentifier
• senderGroupReferenceIdentifiersender
• transactionReferenceIdentifier
• receiverInterchangeReferenceIdentifier
• receiverGroupReferenceIdentifier
• receiverTransactionReferenceIdentifier

The referenceIdentifier has been added to our JSON Transaction payload:

"referenceIdentifiers": [
  {
    "value": "000000352",
    "type": "INTERCHANGE",
    "owner": "RECEIVER"
  },
  {
    "value": "352",
    "type": "GROUP",
    "owner": "RECEIVER"
  },
  {
    "value": "0001",
    "type": "TRANSACTION",
    "owner": "RECEIVER"
  }
]

We have made improvements to X12 file uploads from the Transactions page:

1. The file size limit has been increased from 1 MB to 12 MB.
2. A success message will appear in the bottom left of the page, with a link to the processing details for your file. For example, if you uploaded an EDI file containing multiple Transactions, Orderful will list the different Transactions from this file and their creation status.

We’ve added inbound and outbound Orderful-hosted SFTP Communication Channels to the Communication Channels page.

For now, only Orderful-hosted SFTP can be created. That means Orderful is creating, hosting and managing the SFTP server.

Currently Orderful-hosted SFTP Communication Channels have the following restrictions:

• Only X12 data can be sent and received
• Username and password is the only available authentication method
• Only the SFTP protocol is supported.

After you create an SFTP communication channel, the SFTP server configuration details, credentials, upload and download requirements are automatically generated and available through Orderful.

For instructions on how to set-up an inbound Orderful-hosted SFTP Communication Channel see here: https://docs.orderful.com/docs/set-up-org-follower#inbound-ftp-and-sftp

For instructions on how to set-up an outbound Orderful-hosted SFTP Communication Channel see here: https://docs.orderful.com/docs/set-up-org-follower#outbound-ftpsftp

If you want to create a self-hosted FTP/SFTP Communication Channel, you’ll still need to contact our support team.

We have made infrastructure changes to our AS2 backend that should result in your transaction delivery updates arriving more quickly.

We also added support for an Orderful CA certificate: For Trading Partners who require them, Orderful can now provide CA certificates for AS2 Communication Channels. If you'd like to enable this, please contact [email protected].

Finally, Orderful will now send a positive MDN even if we can’t create an EDI job. This means that you will no longer receive the "Unexpected Processing Error" Outbound MDN error. This error has been removed from our AS2 Troubleshooting page.

We have added a new API endpoint that retrieves a list of transactions: GET /transactions/.

Additionally, the Transaction object has been updated, with more information in the sender and receiver objects. Both objects now include:

• name
• isaId
• isaIdQualifier
• testIsaId
• testIsaIdQualifier

To read the updated documentation, see the List Transactions page.

Previously, Orderful would only accept AS2 messages sent over HTTPS. We now also accept AS2 messages sent over HTTP to http://as2.orderful.com as long as the AS2 message is encrypted with an Orderful AS2 certificate.

We made some infrastructure changes to speed up delivery for VAN Communication Channels. Transactions to new VAN communication channels are now delivered synchronously. This means you’ll be informed about transaction delivery updates more quickly.

We have made improvements to Scenario Testing with better visual cues about the status of your checklist, as well as more guidance in the UI. In situations where a transaction has been rejected, we have also added the ability to retry only one step of a Scenario Test checklist.

We have added a Transaction Metrics Dashboard to the top of your organization's Transactions page. Here you can quickly see metrics about your Transaction acknowledgment status.

Transactions now have a consistent payload structure across your Communication Channels and Orderful APIs.

Additionally, Integration Assistance now shows the complete payload instead of just the contents of the message.
