External ID Types in Profiles and EDI ID Qualifiers
In a Trading Networks profile, specify external IDs to indicate how trading partners are identified within the HIPAA messages that they send. For example, if a trading partner uses a D-U-N-S number in a document, define a DUNS external ID type in the Trading Networks profile and specify the trading partner's D-U-N-S number as the corresponding external ID.
For EDI documents, the external IDs correspond to the sender IDs and receiver IDs in the ISA headers of the EDI documents and the external ID types correspond to the EDI ID qualifiers (for example, 01 for a D-U-N-S number).
Module for EDI installs external ID types into Trading Networks the first time you start Integration Server Administrator after installing and enabling Module for EDI. The following table lists these external ID types:

Note:
You must override EDI ID qualifiers to use those IDs in Module for HIPAA (for example, in EDI the ID qualifier code 30 is "ISO 6523" but in HIPAA it is "Federal Tax ID"). For more information about adding and overriding EDI ID qualifiers, see the webMethods Module for EDI Installation and User’s Guide .
