Collection Areas Representing an Interchange in the Final Batch EDI Document
You can think of sorting as if the batchProcess service was placing each transaction from an EDI document into a collection area. Each collection area is associated with the following items, which the batchProcess service obtains from the interchange or transmission header of the document.
Each collection area has the same:
EDI standard and version
Interchange or transmission sender/receiver
Production mode (for example, Production or Testing)
Each collection area becomes an interchange or transmission segment in the final batch EDI document.
