To setup the output, perform the following: 1. From the  ProStix Main Menu  select ' Electronic Trade Module ' then ' ETM Output Control'  then ' E-Addresses '. An E-Address is required to move the XML files produced by ProStix into the shared directory on your server. Set up the E-Address as follows: The target host and target user settings are not used in the e-address but have been set as a description of the destination. The target directory /prostix/dmp/the-out is the directory in which ProStix saves the XML files to be sent to the Exchange. For each of the suppliers that you'll be communicating with via the T&HE you'll need to add this new e-address to them. You can do this through Supplier Maintenance or through -  'Electronic Trade Module'  then  'ETM Output Control'  then  'E-Addresses by Entity'. 2. From the  ProStix Main Menu  select ' Electronic Trade Module ' then ' ETM Output Control ' then ' Output Document Setting '.  For each supplier that you communicate with you'll need to set up output document settings for each branch that will send documents electronically. See the following example for sending Purchase Orders to James Hardie: The HIWG standard requires that you communicate the  Global Location Number (GLN)  of your branch and your supplier's GLN within the purchase order. These are setup using the Sender Id (your GLN) and the Receiver Id (supplier's GLN) fields. Because we are sending the standard ProStix XML output to the T&HE there is no need to enter a Format ID. In the example above, the first 8 characters indicate a communication from Goulds to James Hardie (refer to  Identification Codes ).  The file extension indicates that the document is a Purchase Order. Make sure the file name contains the <dr> tag to ensure its uniqueness. The 'send to' address should be the address you set up to move the file in to the shared directory.
