Mapping CII Documents

Edit online

The Sterling B2B Integrator Map Editor enables you to map CII documents, and generates a file layout for you using the components and message types that you select. The Sterling B2B Integrator Map Editor-generated CII map consists of groups, composites, and fields that are comparable to parameters that are defined by CII.

Note: The IBM® Sterling Standards Database for CII contains Japanese data. To use it, you must first install the Japanese code page into Windows first.

A CII map that contains an FA, FD, or F9 data tag in extended mode on the output side of the map must have a Use Constant standard rule defined, so that a detail number is generated. A detail number is mandatory for these tags in extended mode.

For CII inbound and outbound processes, you must specify either 8-bit or 16-bit character set in the envelope. For 8-bit character set, you can choose JIS0201, SJIS, or Default, where Default is JIS0201. For 16-bit character set, you can choose JIS0208, JIS0212, SJIS, or Default, where Default is SJIS. If you do not set these two values, the default value will be used in translation.

Note: You need to download the Sterling B2B Integrator Map Editor component to use it.

Sterling B2B Integrator Map Editor allows you to modify the map components by using the Deactivate, Promote, Split, Copy, Cut, and Paste functions.

You can create a map for all CII Standards Release messages loaded into the Sterling Standards Database for CII through the Sterling B2B Integrator Map Editor.
