Inside the flow
How the template works
appse ai runs this workflow end to end for Ftp-Sftp — automatically, every single day. Here is exactly what happens when this template runs.
Intelligent File Filtering
Screens directory contents to isolate valid EDI transaction files, passing only raw data files forward while ignoring subdirectories.
Secure Document Ingestion & Base64 Encoding
Downloads the EDI file and converts it to Base64 format for secure, reliable cross-cloud processing.
Smart EANCOM-to-JSON Parsing
Decodes the inbound EANCOM payload, extracting PO numbers, SAP customer IDs, line-item material codes, quantities, and prices into structured JSON.
Preliminary SAP Quotation for Validation
Submits parsed order data to SAP Business One as a test quotation to verify customer status, pricing, and item master configurations - without creating a permanent ledger entry.
Three-Way Data Verification
Cross-references the incoming EANCOM file against the SAP quotation output to confirm all line items, stock codes, and prices align exactly.
Sales Order Creation or Exception Routing
Verified orders are promoted to a legally binding SAP Sales Order; any discrepancy routes to AI-generated exception handling.
AI-Generated CONTRL Acknowledgement
OpenAI builds a context-aware EANCOM CONTRL response through ai automation - an 'Accepted' acknowledgement for valid orders, or a 'Rejected' acknowledgement with precise error mapping for failed ones.
SFTP Acknowledgement Upload & Archiving
Acknowledgement files are uploaded to the partner's FTP/SFTP into /Accepted/ or /Rejected/ folders, closing the compliance loop.
Real-Time Teams Exception Alert
Rejected orders trigger an immediate Teams notification with buyer ID, failing PO number, and the unrecognized item code for instant resolution.
