editobol example notes

Points to be aware of when using the editobol example

  • The input type of the executable map is Partner X12 Inbound Transmission. The output type is File, which is your file that contains any number of bills of lading. Each bill of lading is composed of one header record and many detail records. Each header record has several fields, including repeating sets of name and address information. These sets have been defined in the schema as a single object called NameSet, which is used three times. The detail record object contains five fields. These are fixed length records, where every field is mandatory and no delimiters are used. Header records are initiated by 01, and detail records by 02.
  • The output file is made up of BillOfLading(s). The EachBOL functional map maps each #204 transaction set to the output bill of lading.
