Capturing GM Parts Invoicing Data via Reynolds

[fburrows]

Does anyone know of a way to capture the parts invoicing data or files from GM that are delivered via DCS on a Reynolds system? Although the data is delivered via Reynolds it apparently is not stored on the Reynolds system. Any ideas??

thanks

I was able to do this with the following steps using EraLink:

SETUP:

Add a new printer in Windows. When asked for the printer port, choose FILE. Complete the setup.

In EraLink, from the drop down menus, choose FILE and then PRINTER SETUP. Make the printer you just setup (file printer) the selection in the 'Specific Printer' option.

USE:

Print your received files the same way you always (7010, pick your DCS franchise, option 3 for communications, Print Received Information, etc) with the following exception:

Instead of selecting 'PRINT ALL RECEIVED INFORMATION NOT YET PRINTED', choose the option for 'selective printing'. This will allow you to select individual line items to print, thereby allowing you to select the items marked '003INVOICE' (or whatever file you're looking for).

After selecting the line item, the cursor will move to the printer selection-- choose '1' for local printer.

The file will begin printing to the file printer-- when it is done, a dialog box will appear asking you to name the file-- enter it, click OK and you're done.

Repeat this for as many invoices/files as you need.
