  • 1.  How to read 80 byte format file in ITXA map?

    Posted Wed January 24, 2024 05:23 PM

    Hi there, We are receiving EDI X12 file from MF in 80 byte format. I am able to read as blob and unwrap it to regular format and by using RUNMAP able to feed this unwrapped data as input. But I am trying to avoid RUNMAP - is there anyway that we can read directly 80 byte format EDI X12 file directly? Any help is appreciated.

    1. What is the reason why you cannot create a type tree to read the data from MF as using it as input will not require Runmap?
    2. Use the Parse command in the output rule to apply the blob into a structured format which is defined by a type tree.  For example, you input is called BLOB.  In the output card, =PARSE(TEXT(BLOB)).
