Description

Processing stock feed data sent from suppliers in CSV or .xml format. This module handles stock feeds from an assortment of suppliers through the use of configuration files supplied with Jes.

 

If suppliers choose to send their feed in .xml format they will need to conform to the Jim2 .xml format, or they need a .xlst developed to map their .xml format to the Jim2 .xml format.

 

If suppliers choose to send their feed in CSV format, they will need to conform to the generic CSV feed file format.

 

The data feed file may be compressed.

 

For instructions on how to configure stock feeds, refer to How to Set up Stock Feed Process.
