Send an iRAPT message based on a Revision of Defense iRAPT Report

Explanation

Defense suppliers that work on U.S. defense contracts are required to flow down specific information. Invoicing, Receipt, Acceptance, and Property Transfer (iRAPT) is a secure Web-based system for electronic invoicing, receipt and acceptance and is part of the department of defense e-Business Suite. The iRAPT messages are required by the U.S. government. The payment process for a shipment is started for the defense contractor when the iRAPT messages are provided.

Use this activity to set a revision of a Defense iRAPT Report to Sent. To set a Defense iRAPT Report to Sent is a manual action done via the Command to Status/Send in the Defense iRAPT Report header. Once a revision of the Defense iRAPT Report is set to Sent the iRAPT messages is stored as an XML-file containing all the data defined for the revision and the related Defense Report Items that can be used for creation of the files to be sent to government.
