Common QuestionsCommon Questions
• Why should I take the GXS Webinar OLV training?
The training covers how to register for OLV, how to setup your account and manage alerts, and describes the order/invoice process flow. It also shows you how to access orders, how to create invoices, and how to locate rejected invoices.
• Do I have to use OLV? What if I already have an EDI system?
Alcatel-Lucent requires electronic invoicing which mandates electronic setup of all orders. You cannot do one without the other at this time. If you already do EDI with Alcatel-Lucent, you will need to review whether you can go fully EDI or use OLV only with them since the criteria for doing so depends on various criteria. Please contact Alcatel-Lucent directly to discuss.

Common QuestionsCommon Questions
• I registered but didn’t encounter some of the screens you said I would…why not?
• Why didn’t I get a confirmation email after registering?
Your registration didn’t process correctly. During the initial registration steps you may be shown a page with a list of similar companies and the message “A company with this name and location already exists”. This means your company (or a division of your company) has already registered for Trading Grid. If you select to associate yourself with this company, your registration will error out so that you won’t get the pricing screens, for example. Please contact GXS ([email protected]) for assistance. Refer to the Registration Guide posted in the GXS/ALU website for how to correct this situation and register correctly.
