Special Considerations for EDIFACT Acknowledgements
Introduction When creating an outbound EDIFACT Control document, the default system
behavior is to extract the Sender ID and Receiver ID from the Internal System
User partner. According to the EDIFACT standard, the Sender ID and Receiver ID
in the UCI and UCF record of the Control document should contain the values
from the Inbound UNB and UNG segment, respectively.
The Gentran:Server product CD (in the Maps\Special directory) contains the
translation object CntrlBld_DLL.tpl. This map enables you to obtain the Sender
ID and Receiver ID from the inbound data file via a user exit that accesses the
GentranAutomation.DLL. The GentranAutomation.DLL is automatically
registered when you install or upgrade the product. This DLL is currently only
used by the CntrlBld_DLL map.
Note
You can either use either functionality. The default translation object selected for
the Outbound Control Build relationship is the ACKBUILD_CONTRL.
Procedure To use the CntrlBld_DLL.tpl functionality to obtain the Sender ID and Receiver
ID, complete the following steps:
