Double-click the X12 Inbound Interchange type to view the components of the interchange.
The following table lists and describes the components of the X12 Inbound Interchange.
Component | Description |
---|---|
ISA Segment | The first component of an interchange is the envelope header. The ISA segment identifies who sent the interchange or who you are sending one to. It also contains the objects that are used within the interchange for segment terminators, segment delimiters, and composite delimiters. |
ISB Segment | Allows the sender to request more services from the service request handlers. |
ISE Segment | Allows the sender to request more services from the service request handlers. |
TA1 Segment | Optional and is typically used by network providers. TA1 is an interchange acknowledgment. |
Funct'lGroup | Represents the functional groups that are sent or received. |
IEA Segment | The interchange envelope trailer. |
Note: The ISB and ISE segments
are found only in ANSI versions 3050 and later. For example, the ISB and ISE segments
are not shown as components of an interchange in the ansi3040.mtt tree.
The X12 Outbound Interchange type is similar to the structure of the X12 Inbound Interchange type. The only difference is that Inbound is replaced with Outbound.
