Translating
inbound data
process
The system uses the following process to translate inbound data:.
Stage Description
1
The Communicator receives interchanges from your trading partners
via a network.
2
The Communicator passes the interchanges to the translator.
3
The translator uses a system interchange break translation object to
unwrap the interchange envelopes and separate each group into
temporary storage.
4
The translator uses a system group break translation object to
unwrap the group envelopes and separate each transaction set into
temporary storage.
5
The translator uses a system transaction break translation object to:
Unwrap the transaction envelopes.
Separate each document into a separate file on the system data
store.
Write a record to the database with reference information about
the document.
6
Does the translator locate a trading relationship for each document?
If yes (a trading relationship is located), the translator attempts
to identify the export, document turnaround, or print translation
object associated with that relationship. If the translator does
locate a trading relationship and translation object, it uses that
translation object to compliance check the document.
If no (the translator does not locate the trading relationship or
translation object), the document is marked as not compliant and
is moved in the ?In Documents.
7
Is the document is compliant with the EDI standard?
If yes, the translator changes the document status to compliant
and moves the document in the In Documents.
If no, the document remains in the ?In Documents. The
translator writes a detailed error report to help you to determine
the problem that was encountered.
