    ITX has a designated Pack for EDI, that comes with predefined Typetrees which can be used on Input cards to validate EDI data.  I assume you already have a suitable XML Schema (XSD) to use on output which has all the fields you require.

    From there it is a simple matter of 'mapping'.  EDI is quite a complex data structure, and tackling this kind of mapping for your first attempt is not a great idea.

    Why don't you start with something simple, and work up to EDI?  I can recommend these good resources:

    IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender for the Absolute Beginner

    and

    Data Transformation Extender (TX) Introductory Demo Video

    I find it highly unlikely that somebody will have a documented step-by-step guide to creating and EDI to XML mapping that suits your exact need.  This si partial because, if this sort of document existed, then there would be a reduced need for Services people in onsite engagements to do exactly that sort of implementation.

    Thank you.

    The link to the demo video doesn't appear to work.  I tried it in IE and Chrome.  Thanks.
