Setting up the TPEC2CM conversion map
About this task
Before you build the maps that make up this tool please configure/verify:
- The tool uses "update.mdq" from the mmgr directory where the Message Manager source is installed. It provides access to a Trading Manager database that the tool requires. It needs to be configured to point to the target CM database for this conversion process. Due to expected amount of information in the extracted data, MS Access should not be used. A test database of the same type as the final target is recommended.
- The target database should not contain any entries in the Address Book, Post Offices, nor Tradelinks.
- The target database has to have the X12 Structure File loaded. If the TPEC system has HIPAA transactions the HIPAA Structure File should also be loaded into the target database before XML Autoload is executed.
- The tool also uses "cmsvc.dll", "m4ecmgmt.mtt", and "mmgr_library.mms" from the mmgr directory where the Message Manager source is installed. Output card 1 (ProcessCB) of executable map "ConvertTPEC2CM" has to point to the mmgr folder.
