What a flip document is
Flip (turn-around document) is the function that 'turns' a received document into a response document, automatically pulling common data. From the received order (ORDERS) it generates the ASN (DESADV) or the invoice (INVOIC), with no re-keying.
Flip examples
- Order → Order confirmation
- Order → Advance ship notice (ASN)
- ASN → Invoice
Why it matters
In Web EDI, flip is essential for speed and accuracy: the supplier doesn't recreate data, only fills in what's missing (delivered quantities, batches, serials), minimising errors.
How CRMconnect helps
The CRMconnect Web EDI portal enables one-click flip: from the received order it instantly generates a pre-filled ASN and invoice, with the supplier adjusting only real differences - fast and free of transcription errors.
Πραγματικό παράδειγμα
A supplier manually filled in the ASN and invoice from the order, with frequent code errors. With CRMconnect's flip function, the ASN and invoice are generated pre-filled from the order, almost eliminating transcription errors.

Συχνές ερωτήσεις
Which documents can be 'flipped'?+
Most often: order → confirmation, order → ASN, ASN → invoice. Common data is pulled automatically, and the user fills only step-specific information.
Does flip reduce errors?+
Yes, significantly. By pulling data from the source document, it removes re-keying of codes, quantities and references - the main cause of errors and chargebacks.
