Setting up a repeated job to automatically send all new and changed items to the GDSN pool

In the DSE GDSN scenario the item data together with their hierarchy data are sent in a single message called CatalogItemNotification to the GDSN pool. The corresponding export template to be used is CIN_CatalogItemNotification.

There are two parameters you have to specify in order to find the items to be sent. The first is the catalog and item assortment, the second is the reference date used to find all items that have been created or modified since the last execution of the job.

Note: For the initial setup you should use a date in the distant past to ensure that all item are considered. For further information see "Export templates for DSE".

Setting up a repeated job to automatically send item publications to the GDSN pool

In order to provide the item data to the customers you need to send publication messages to the GDSN pool. The first step is to mark your items for publication using the publication status as described in "Publication".

Next you have to build a dynamic assortment containing all items marked for publication, see "GDSN Accelerator operation", section "Create an assortment containing all items which are marked for publication".

Finally you have to create the export job using the export template CIP_CatalogItemPublication which should be already configured as described in the chapter "Export templates". Before scheduling the job set the assortment mentioned above to the "Assortment" parameter.
