Biztalk EDI 856 Mapping H1 Segment

Question

Hi,
I'm new to EDI 856 mapping in Biztalk. I have to map xml schema to EDI 856 XSD and generate a EDI file through biztalk.
I've 3 datasets (repeating nodes) in internal schema (shipment level, order level and item level) I have  to map this data to EDI 856 in Biztalk mapping. But the complexity is i have to map all the data's with-in HL loop. I have to repeat HL loop thrice
for shipment level , order level , and item level and each time i should map data to different segments. (ex: i should have LIN segment only at item level).
My output should be like
<HL> --SHIPMENT LEVEL
<TD1></TD1>
<TD3></TD3>
<REF></REF>
<FOB></FOB>
<HL> -- ORDER LEVEL
<TD1></TD1>
<REF></REF>
<N1></N1>
<HL> --ITEM LEVEL
<LIN></LIN>
<SN1></SN1>
<TD></TD>
The problem i face is since i loop HL segment the N1 which should be present only at order level gets repeated at shipment and item level too. Please help me or suggest any study material , its urgent.
Thanks in advance..

Answer 1

Hi,
I can anyone help me to map a flat XSD to a structured XSD in biztalk mapping.
Incoming Schema
Record
<Shipmentdata>
<Shipmentdata1>
<Shipmentdata2>
<Orderdata>
<Orderdata1>
<Orderdata2>
<ItemData>
<ItemData1>
<ItemData2>
OutputSchema
<shipmentData>
<OrderData>
<ItemData>
My input schema is a flat one which i take from DB (ex: if there is 15 items in one shipment and 3 orders the xml will repeat 15 times with repeating data in shipment node and order node). I should convert it into a Structured XML with 3 level of hierarchy.
Please help with Biztalk mapper example. Thanks in advance.
