Retrieving Turnaround Data for Export
Basic Implementation Definition setup for retrieving outbound turnaround data for export is similar to the equivalent inbound setup.
This time, you select the implementation definition that is being used for the outbound document. In this example, the implementation is Invoice. You can define turnaround data on both header and detail level, and the convention is to use
ext records definitions. The example in
Outbound Turnaround Data Implementation Record uses HEADER‑EXT.

Set Src/Dest to T. For outbound implementations, the system next prompts you for the retrieval function to use.
GetTadData is a QAD-provided generic transformation function that can retrieve any turnaround data based on the specified parameters. When you enter the function name and click Next, the system displays the function record so you can update parameters for this instance.
In
Turnaround Data Retrieval Function Parameters, the parameters are set up to retrieve the DepartmentNo field from the turnaround data table using the ih_po record from invoice history. The associated department number is then placed in the application repository HDR-EXT record DepartmentNo field, from which it is exported with the invoice data.
