Outbound UNB Envelope
The Outbound Envelope allows you to determine outbound parameters for the UNB (EDIFACT) option. The Outbound UNB Envelope dialog box is displayed.
Note: EDIFACT version 4 defines the infrastructure necessary to support
the creation (and processing) of interchanges that have been encoded
using a character set other than 8-bit ASCII. Microsoft Windows supports
the processing of an encoded interchange as long as the encoding matches
the default code page of the operating system where it is running.
The following describes the parts of the Outbound UNB Envelope.

syntax identifier. Note: If you type a version number earlier than
version 4 in the Syntax Version box on the Outbound UHB Envelope dialog
box, the system disables the version 4 fields in both the UNB and
UNH dialogs and any data in those fields will not be saved when you
exit the Outbound UNB Envelope dialog box.
