Countries or Regions
The Countries or Regions conversion map uses the ISO3166 available from ISO (http://www.iso.org/iso/en/prods-services/iso3166ma/02iso-3166-code-lists/list-en1.html). For more information about this code list, see the External Code Source section of Washington Publishing HIPAA 005010 Implementation Guide.
Input
The input format is Variable-Length-Delimited. The only delimiter defined is the segment delimiter carriage return. The lines alternate between Description (data-type of string with a maximum length of 255) and Code (data-type of string with a maximum length of 2).
Notes
Each line of description is followed by a line with a code. The fields are mapped directly to fields on the Output side of the map.
The TempLink in the LinkingRecord group is present to ensure that the extended rules (on the Output side of the map) which are responsible for writing out the schema namespaces and the Sterling B2B Integrator version attributes for the SI_RESOURCES document element are executed.
