Outbound UNG Envelope
The Outbound Envelope allows you to determine outbound parameters for the UNG (EDIFACT) option. The Outbound UNG 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 UNG Envelope.
