Transaction | Transaction, and Group and Interchange documents from the original EDI document. When the split document is of type: Transaction. Create a service that processes a single transaction set from the document. For example, create a document in a format used by an internal application based on the transaction set information. For information about how to create this service, see
Logic to Process a File Document. Group and interchange. Do not create a service because all processing for EDI documents is handled when processing Transaction documents. You could also set up processing rules specifically for group and Interchange documents that have no processing actions selected. Or, set up your processing rules so that Interchange documents fall through to the Default rule. Note: If you want to generate functional acknowledgments (FAs), see Automatically Generating Functional Acknowledgments. |

Logic to Map a File Document to an
Internal-Format Document. Interchange. Do not create a service. Processing for the EDI document is handled when processing the Group document. You could also set up a processing rule specifically for the Interchange document that has no processing actions defined or set up your processing rules so that Interchange document falls through to the Default rule. Note: If you want to generate functional acknowledgments (FAs), see Automatically Generating Functional Acknowledgments. |
