Sending FTP Files

To send/put FTP files

1	Connect to your FTP server.

2	From the FTP directory, select the FTP tovan folder.

3	Open the correct FTP file folder. For example: bin, edi, or xml.

4	Change to the <receiver> directory.

Note: For EDI and XML files that include a receiver Trading ID and Qualifier, you do no need to change to the <receiver> directory. For example, if you have changed to the tovan/edi directory, type:
ftp>put 15334433.edi

5	On the command line, type put and the name of the file you want to send in this format: ftp>put <filename>

Examples:

ftp>put 15334432.bin
ftp>put 15334432.edi
ftp>put 15334432.xml

FTP brings the file into your tovan folder and sends it to your Trading Partner.
