Variant Import

In order to capture variants with imported invoice it needs to be enabled in the ExFlow Setup and they need to be defined in the ExFlow Variant Priority.

Setup

Simple Variant

For particular vendors they can have different attributes in their XML where they store their variants.
A simple case of variants in the XML could look something like, it only has one attribute STÆRÐ (size) for the variant.

In this example the variant for item could look as simple as this.

Combined Variants

In some advanced cases the customer has variants that are a combination of two values.
If the variant is a combination it might have some delimeter that is added between the two values. I.e. this item has the combination of size and color with a / between.
This needs to be added to the ExFlow Variant Priority.

In this example it has the attributes STÆRÐ (size) and LITUR (color).

The variant values may differ with vendors but they can usually be found in the XML invoices imported. The path could look something like this: /Invoice/cac:InvoiceLine/cac:Item/cac:AdditionalItemProperty/cac:Value

Capture Variants

In order to see if variants were imported for invoice, users can look in the import journal.

For this invoice, users can see which variants were imported for a particular invoice.

If the variants were correctly setup in the Ex Variant Priority they will be mapped on the journal line.
