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/live/dmp/edis/output is the directory in which ProStix saves the XML files to be retrieved by your VAN. 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 need to set up output document settings for each branch that sends documents electronically. See the following example for sending Purchase Orders to Rheem: Because we are sending the standard ProStix XML output to the VAN there is no need to enter a Format ID. In the example above, the first 8 characters indicate a communication from PWL to Rheem (Refer to Identification Codes ). The file extension indicates that the document is a Purchase Order. Make sure the file name contains the 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.
