Reconciling inbound acknowledgments

The TrackAck map uses the inbound transmission file as a look-up file, if any inbound Group is a #997 that matches Key data in the suspense.txt file, the history.txt file is appended with the new control information. The TrackAck map also uses the current suspense.txt file, and then updates it (see the second output card Pending) to remove a Set of Records that are reconciled and placed in the history.txt file.

The rule that is shown in the rule bar below either copies or deletes a V2003 Set from the pending.txt file.

When the history.txt file is appended, the By3020 or By2003 map is evaluated whenever there is matching data to be reconciled. The By3020 map reconciles inbound acknowledgments for trading partners that use the 3020 version release of the ANSI X12 standards. The By2003 map is similar for those partners that use the 2003 version release.

By3020 updates each record in the Pending set (one for each transaction set associated with the updated functional group).
