Transaction Workflows
Transaction Workflows represent a set of Transactions that belong together in a business process.
For each type of business, Transactions are related to each other if they share a common reference. For instance in the Retail Workflow, related Transactions all use the Purchase Order Number as a common reference.
Orderful currently supports 3 Transaction Workflows:
- Retail Workflow
- Transportation Workflow
- Warehouse Workflow
Retail Workflow
In the Retail Workflow the following Transaction types are grouped together as long as they reference the same Purchase Order Number:
- 850 Purchase Order
- 855 Purchase Order Acknowledgment
- 856 Shipment Notice Manifest
- 860 Purchase Order Change Request Buyer Initiated
- 865 Purchase Order Change Acknowledgement
- 810 Invoice
Each of these Transaction types store the shared Purchase Order Number in a different path.
Transportation Workflow
In the Transportation (TMS) Workflow the following Transaction types are grouped together as long as they reference the same Shipment Identification Number:
- 204 Motor Carrier Load Tender
- 990 Response to a Load Tender
- 214 Transportation Carrier Shipment Status Message
- 210 Motor Carrier Freight Details and Invoice
Each of these Transaction types store the shared Shipment Identification Number in a different path.
Warehouse Workflow
In the Warehouse (3PL) Workflow the following Transaction types are grouped together as long as they reference the same Depositor Order Number:
- 940 Warehouse Shipping Order
- 943 Warehouse Stock Transfer Shipment Advice
- 944 Warehouse Stock Transfer Receipt Advice
- 945 Warehouse Shipping Advice
Each of these Transaction types store the shared Depositor Order Number in a different path.
Find related Transactions by Workflow
Orderful uses Workflows to group Transactions that share a common reference. You can find Transaction that are related to each other by looking at any Transactions related Workflow:
-
Go to your Transactions page
-
Click on a Transaction.
-
Click on the Workflows tab.
-
Under the "Related Transactions" section, you will see Transactions that are a part of this Transaction's Workflow. Clicking on one of the related Transaction will open it in the same tab.
Workflow validation
After Transactions are grouped into Workflows, some of them have further validation performed on them.
214 & 204 SCAC Code
Currently, Orderful performs validation on the SCAC code in both the 204 and any subsequent 214 documents found within a Workflow.
