Controlling Inbound EDI 

Output control integrates all required output types such as goods issue/receipt slips, delivery notes, credit and debit memo requests, invoices, and many more. Because customers who send you these documents by Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) may have special requirements, the SAP System allows you to carry out checks specific to the customer and process inbound messages accordingly.

You configure inbound EDI delivery schedules in Customizing for Sales. Choose Sales Documents ® Scheduling Agreements with Delivery Schedules ® Control EDI Inbound Processing. The following subtopics are set up just as you find them in Customizing.
