Inbound CHIPS Envelope

You only need to create an Inbound CHIPS envelope if you are receiving inbound CHIPS messages. However, if you are receiving inbound CHIPS messages, you need to create a separate Inbound CHIPS envelope for each CHIPS message type you will be receiving. The following table describes Inbound CHIPS envelope properties:

Note: An (*) asterisk indicates that a wildcard value can be used with that parameter. For Inbound envelopes, a wildcard value in the envelope matches any value in the input document, while an empty value in the envelope matches only an empty value in the input document. For Outbound envelopes, a wildcard value is equivalent to an empty value in the envelope.
Field or Check Box
Description
Send participant number*
Four-digit participant number. Required.
Note: When you are setting up an inbound CHIPS envelope for the response codes 55 and 85, the Send Participant Number must be set to * (a single asterisk character). CHIPS messages with response codes of 55 and 85 do not contain the send participant number information in them, so using an asterisk allows the envelope lookup to work with only the response code.
Message name*
Select a CHIPS message name. Required.
Note: The CHIPS deenveloping functionality uses the CHIPS response code in combination with another piece of data (this is usually the value of the first tag in the message) to obtain the CHIPS response message name from the chips.properties property file. The CHIPS deenveloping functionality will then use the message name in combination with the Send Participant Number to find the envelope. Wildcards can be used for the Send Participant Number and the CHIPS message name.
Compliance check document
Check the message body for compliance. Required. Valid values are Yes (default) and No.
Map Name Mode
How to determine which map to use to perform a compliance check. Required. Valid values are:
  • Specify (default)
  • Generate from data (this is useful if you want to share across envelopes)
Note: If you select this option, you must select at least one parameter for Primary Name Format.
Map Name
Which map to use to perform a compliance check (if Compliance Check document is set to Yes and Map Name Mode set to Specify). The map must already be checked in to Sterling B2B Integrator. Optional.
Primary Name Format
Check boxes to specify which information to include when generating and matching a name for the map. Optional.

Select from:

  • Send Participant Number
  • Message name
Note: If you are using a generated map name (Map Name Mode is set to Generate from data), Sterling B2B Integrator tries to generate and match the following maps:
  • First, it tries to generate and match the map in the primary name format (replacing the values that are selected for the corresponding value in the message).
  • Second, it tries to generate and match the First Backup Name.
  • Third, if there is not an existing map that matches the names generated in steps 1-2, an error is generated.

Only occurs if Generate an error if no generated map name exists in the system is set to Yes.

Use backup name format
Whether to use a backup name format if a generated map name cannot be found using the Primary Name Format. Default is selected (use a backup name format).
First Backup Name Format

Select from:

  • Send participant number
  • Message name
Note: If you are using a generated map name (Map Name Mode is set to Generate from data), Sterling B2B Integrator tries to generate and match the following maps:
  • First, it tries to generate and match the map in the primary name format (replacing the values that are selected for the corresponding value in the message).
  • Second, it tries to generate and match the First Backup Name.
  • Third, if there is not an existing map that matches the names generated in steps 1-2, an error is generated.

Only occurs if Generate an error if no generated map name exists in the system is set to Yes.

Generate an error if no generated map name exists in the system
Specifies whether to generate an error if the Map Name selected is not found. Valid values are Yes (default) and No.

Check boxes to specify which information to include when generating and matching a name for the error business process. Optional.

Select from:

  • Send participant number
  • Message name
Note: If you are using a generated business process name (Error Business Process is set to Generate from data), Sterling B2B Integrator tries to generate and match the following business process:
  • First, it tries to generate and match the business process in the primary name format (replacing the values that are selected for the corresponding value in the message).
  • Second, it tries to generate and match the first Backup Name.
  • Third, if there is not an existing business process that matches the names generated in steps 1-2, an error is generated.

Only occurs if Generate an error if no generated business process name exists in the system is set to Yes.

Use backup name format
Whether to use a backup name format if a generated error business process cannot be found using the Primary Name Format. Default is selected (use a backup name format).
