ECI Spruce
You must have the Spruce import function (XpressPOS) to use SaberisConnect.
General Settings
- Allow Unix Filenames: This will purge invalid Unix/Linux characters from export file names.
- Wrap Long Descriptions: If the description is longer than the Max Description Length specified below, text or comment lines will be created until the description is fully accounted for.
- Max Description Length: 1000
Export Settings
- Export File Format: Must be Saberis Standard XML
-
Export Adapter: None or FTP
None: This will mean that the user will have to manually download the "Processed File" to the folder that the Spruce XpressPOS import can import from.
FTP: Using FTP (File Transfer Protocol) can eliminate the need for the user to download the documents. Ask your IT people to set-up a secure FTP server, and then fill in the necessary domain, user name, password, and target path information.
Module Settings
- There must be a special order SKU entered.
- Customer Number: Most users do not check "Use Customer Number". If you do use this option, the user will have the opportunity to change the customer number for each order they process.
Spruce on the cloud cannot be accessed by FTP.
Please contact support@saberis.com for information regarding the ECI Spruce API import process.
If using the Saberis FTP to download the Saberis processed files, then you will need to set it to a server address that is accessible from the Saberis Server.
Spruce Import Steps:
-
Start a new order. Enter a name and a job number.
-
At the bottom of the page select the F2 import. Then select Xpresspos. This will be changed to Saberis at sometime in the near future.
-
Click on the elipse button to select the file to be imported. Make sure a Template item is selected, Copy Costs is selected, and that there is a Comment Item SKU selected.
-
Navigate to the folder where you downloaded the SaberisConnect Processed File to. This will probably be on your desktop. Since Spruce is open on the Spruce server, navigate to your desktop which is usually setup by IT as "tsclient" under the Network.
If your IT people have set up an FTP server for automatic downloads from SaberisConnect, the file will not be on your desktop. Check with your admin or IT.
-
Before you click on Accept, select the Save Defaults button in the top right corner. This will save the path you selected as the default, along with the other settings.
-
After clicking on Accept, all the items will be added to the order.
