Why:
A generic interface can accept 'Oil Transactions' from a 3rd Party Supplier.
Where:
This is from an external source, i.e., the 3rd Party system.
How Oil Transactions are Handled:
Oil transactions can either update the labour record file THF311 or update the order detail screen as an operation number (set up as an 'F' type other operation within local VST file) or they can update the parts record file THF310 and transaction file THF102 with a valid part number. (Depending upon parameter OIL 001).
Part number transactions are subject to the pricing API and all discounts/special prices are applied.
The interface uses VCOM to transfer the data between the third party and Fusion, however the information provided by the third party must meet certain demands required by Fusion and if these are not met then a return will be sent back to the third party and the transaction rejected. (For example if the order has been invoiced etc).
