Hi @FHammer
Although your comment wasn’t specifically directed at me, if you’re open to it, I’d be interested in working/collaborating with you.
I’m not a end-user or a stakeholder though, so it would be of the collaboration type vs hiring you as a consultant.
It’s been a few months since I worked in ERPNext last - been looking around at Odoo forks (very interesting stuff) - love the code but the ERPNext usersgroup is 100 times as active.
What base version of ERPNext are you targeting?
When I left off last module creation (or specifically visibility of the new module) in v12 was still giving me problems so I was using v11.
I do seem to have mucked-up my v11 & v12 on-prem test server implementations though, so if you’ll let me know your target I’ll reinstall so we’re both on the same page.
I have test transactions from live customers to validate against - 850, 855, 856 & 810
And also a EDI server/mapper so that we can exchange drummond-certified & code-list validated transactions - just like a fortune 500 would.
Do you mean 865 or 856?
865 is PO Change Acknowledgement. (865 is to 860 what 855 is to 850)
Right now I’m using 11.1.39.
Even thats what we need - an environment to test several business cases against an existing installation.
I’ve also allready realised several more connections by EDIFACT including AMAZON.
So I prefer to process as much as will be possible. Including both 865 + 856.
Which transmission way you are able to use ? FTP, AS2, X.400 ?
Let me know which steps should be the next ones in your oppinion.
Hi @szufisher
I’m not sharing the Code because I’m providind the solution as SAAS. If you are interested don’t hesitate to contact me.
I’ve seen that you are working arround SAP. My solution is also able to act as a middleware between ERPNext and SAP connecting via IDOCs.

I started this thread in an attempt to collaborate toward a module for EDI that we could all share, use, study and benefit from. FHammer doesn’t take that approach, obviously - all the more power to him.
I make an offer to the community:
I don’t have a GIT (yet) for sharing my code, but if you have an interest in helping out and sharing in the duties of building, testing or using an OPENSOURCE module that we can all benefit from, please respond here, or PM and I’ll discuss what I’ve done so far and what remains to be done, for processing X12 850, 855, 856 & 810 into and out of ERPNext.
Full disclosure - my solution is far from being ‘production ready’ at this point - if you need something turnkey, that’s still many months out.
I am thinking whether it is feasible to embed / integrate bots into erpnext natively,if you have already done something, I would like to join your effort.

BOTS is a monolithic solution unto itself. I’ve looked at BOTS and have taken a different path.
I chose to start from scratch with a parser/validator inside a ERPNext module.
also we may consider support UBL,anyway if possible share your doc and repo, I will try my best to collaborate and contribute, hopefully other interested members may join.
@mattlongfield Hey Matt, I’m very interested in this project so far and would like to learn more about where you’re currently at. I might be able to help contribute if it would fit in with our project timelines. Please let me know how we can best discuss this further!
Hi Sergio.
Sorry, I hadn’t checked this thread in quite a while and changed initial emails on the initial user account.
Still interested in collaborating on EDI?
Hi Jeff.
It’s been quite a while since I participated in either this thread, or in ERPNext development or implementation in general. I’m picking it up again, though. If you’re interested in collaborating on EDI in ERPNext, ping back and maybe we can share strategies, approaches and goals.
I’m looking into ERPNext and EDI is a must have for us to consider as we need it for Amazon. I’m fairly comfortable with Python and would be interested in possibly joining you on working on this.
