NOTE: It should not be necessary to manually retrieve EDI invoices from EBSCONET to load into Alma, because Alma is programmed to fetch them automatically.
Nevertheless, here is the procedure should we need it:
EBSCONET
Log into EBSCONET and go Orders => EDI.
Click on Invoices.
Note: If you cannot see EDI invoices, you might not be authorized appropriately in EBSCONET. See Acquisitions Librarian.
You will see a file that looks like this:
ILS.III.INV.RB97002.D031115.T085334.INV [[update example for Alma]]
The RB97002 is URI's EBSCO account number.
The D031115 is the date the file was created (i.e. 3/11/15)
To the right of the file name is listed the Invoice Number/s included in the file.
Note the one .INV file may contain multiple invoices.
Click on the file to save it to your desktop.
