Document Summary

How to import new release orders made in Edelweiss to RMS.

Document Contents

Follow the standard Edelweiss export order instructions found within the Orders help section.  Download the order to your PC.  You will need to save the file in your BOOK folder with the default file name.

Type EOI and press <Enter> at the “Enter Program Name” prompt in RMS.  Click the “Browse” button to see available files downloaded from the Above the Treeline site.  If you changed the file name from their default naming convention or didn’t save the file in the BOOK directory, you will need to type in the file name and location.

Click on the desired file and click the “Open” button.  This will put the file name selected in the entry field beside the “Process ATL” button.  Click the “Process ATL” button to complete the process.

The changes downloaded are made in the TBO field in IVM.  TBO items can be added to a work order allowing you to follow your normal ordering process.
