Note Each trade ID can have multiple customers attached to it. The import looks for a customer with the imported trade ID and the imported store ID first to determine the relevant customer (if you have a billing customer/customer setup). If the import does not find one, it assumes a customer/customer ship-to setup, in which case one would typically have just one customer per trade ID. Therefore, it uses the first customer for that trading partner.
Before using this import, the following must be set up:
EDI trading partners
products
shipping locations
There must be a record of blank space(s) at the end of an import file.
