EDI Laffs, Gaffs and Blunders: New EDI Partner!
Posted: March 5th, 2009Posted By: MikeB


Edition V4.03: What the Flying Fuck?!?!

Hey, got a new partner to setup, that cool.  Here’s a link to their implementation documentation, right on.  5 or 6 documents to setup, no probs.

What’s that, their EDI dept is outsourced to India, well this will be different.  Oh they are new to the whole EDI world, well that will make the project "special".

Special as in these fuckers are on crack!  Yep, you can technically send 999999 Date segments, doesn’t mean that you have to send that many.  Here’s an idea, try just sending the RELEVANT ones!  RELEVANT!  Actually, I don’t give a fuck what date your fucking factory opened, dont send it in a purchase order! Mahindra Kalamazingari Muralichandra had his head lopped off in a clash with the British back in 1810 - Here’s me not caring!  Don’t send it!  Let’s see what else, oh, you are a warehouse only customer, that’s ordinarily a more streamlind document as compared to drop ship.  NOT for these fuckers! While you’re at it, why not specify your date segments several times, instead of list them all at once, being concise is such a bore. 

TD5.  Carrier details, hey lets link to a PDF on your website!  Yes, all EDI software can translate PDF fucking files.

ITD. Terms of sale, discount rates, dates, fuck that, lets just use the description field LOL!

CTP. Price - you are sending the fucking retail price only?  Hey if that’s what you stupid fucks want to pay, rock on.

SDQ. SDQ?  Seriously? For real?  A wharehouse order, ships to one location, specified in the N1.  Now you are going to list all the locations in an SDQ. The fuck?

 

Newsflash, if you don’t know what the fuck you are doing, don’t spin the Wheel Of EDI to figure out what the document requirements are.

 

Hindu douchebags.
