Instance IDs for Interchange, Group, and Transaction Documents
The following table describes what Module for EDI uses for the instanceID portion of the conversation ID.
Type of Document
Instance ID
Additional Information
Interchange
Control number from interchange envelope
Module for EDI always assigns a conversation ID to the Interchange document. The conversation ID has one of the following formats:
receiverID-senderID-controlNum
senderID-receiverID-controlNum
Group
Control number from group envelope
Module for EDI always assigns a conversation ID to the Group document. The conversation ID has the one of the following formats:
receiverID-senderID-controlNum
senderID-receiverID-controlNum
Transaction
Value of instance ID query
Module for EDI only assigns a conversation ID if you define an instance ID query for the transaction set that corresponds to the Transaction document. For example, if you want Module for EDI to assign a conversation ID for a Transaction document that contains an X12 4010 850 transaction set, you must define an instance ID query for an X12 4010 850 transaction. You define instance ID queries from the WmEDIforTN home page.
Note:
This feature is deprecated in Module for EDI. Use the procedure to set a conversation ID as described in Flat File Schema Namespace Conventions instead.
