Mfr. code in VFS integration settlement file
CR2 interfaces with an external entity known as Volvo Financial Services or VFS, which a customized program for one of our CR2 customer. During the nightly settlement phase, CR2’s VFS integration program sends invoice settlement details to Volvo’s system.
In the InvoiceItems section of the settlement file, CR2 sends an encoded value for the tag “Mfg”, which is an identifier of manufacturer for the Volvo’s system. This Mfg field value will be encoded for the invoice item lines based on the respective Item/Part’s manufacturer’s Customer ID and the Customer ID – Value mapping defined in the VFS integration program’s webconfig file. Below is the list of those parameters. These parameters can have multiple values with comma as a separator.
