	<HelpTopic><AimSection><Paragraph>Use this session to read and/or print the contents of supplier diskettes. Buy-from <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#BusinePartne.tc" role="glossary">business partners</Link> can use diskettes to give you information on prices and discounts. This session is used to read the data that is stored on the diskette.</Paragraph>
		</AimSection>
		<GeneralSection><List><ListIntro>Recording codes Because the buy-from business partner's item codes and unit codes can differ from your own codes, you must define the relationship between both codes through the sessions:</ListIntro>

			<List><ListIntro>Reading diskettes To read a diskette, SSA ERP must know the following:</ListIntro>
				<ListItem>The structure of the data on the diskette</ListItem>
				<ListItem>The method used for recording discounts</ListItem>
			</List>
			<Paragraph>You can enter this data by buy-from business partner through the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/pdm/tppdm7151s000" role="session">Diskette Layouts by Buy-from BP (tppdm7151s000)</GUIRef> session. However, you can also enter them directly in the relevant fields by using this session. First, you copy the file with prices to a directory on the system where SSA ERP is running. In the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Path File Name</GUIRef> field and the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">File Name</GUIRef> field in this session, you indicate where the file can be found. For each buy-from business partner you can define default values for this session through the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tp/pdm/tppdm7151s000" role="session">Diskette Layouts by Buy-from BP (tppdm7151s000)</GUIRef> session.</Paragraph>
