EDI Validation

Hello everyone
did any one implemented edi valdiation scenario
where XI knows to valdiate the EDI message and split the file to good and bad records? we also would like to inform the user about the errors
we are using SAP Conversion Agent to catch the errors from the xml attributes and map them to errors ( constants ) in message mapping
and then we send it to the user
but its not conveient and doesnt handle all the cases
thx , shai

Hi
I have not used SAP Conversion Agent so don't know how to handle simple transformation validation.  But if the resulting target is a SAP system then perhaps the best place for business logic validation is within that system.  I would use the Conversion Agent to prepare a message for posting to the Target system and then let it (say via IDOC or even RFC processing) have all the Business Logic for validation in that system.

  • Disable EDI validations in BizTalk 2009

    Hi,
    I have a requirement to disable EDI validations in BizTalk 2009. The requirement is to capture and store the XML messages that will be used to render the CMS1500 or UB04 claim forms later on. I was thinking to have a very basic pipeline with EDI Disassembler,
    turn off the validation properties and a send port that subscribes to the XML message generated by the receive pipeline. Since the TP agreement takes precedence over the EDI Disassembler pipeline component properties, my 837 file is failing in the receive
    pipeline for syntax. Unfortunately I can't disable EDI Validation at the Party level since the party setup is used by the production process that sends claims to the mainframe system. Even with EDI validation turned off, I read that there are still some validations
    that is performed. Is there a way to completely turn off EDI validation? In other words turn off SNIP Level 1 and 2 validations? Failed message routing is not an option since it routes entire Transaction set with the failed message. Any better options available
    to achieve my requirement? Really appreciate some guidance on this.
    Thanks.

    Thank you for the reply, boatseller. If a message fails syntax in production, 999 is generated and send out to the TP. But there are some small shops/individual providers who directly submit claims to the Payer. These small shops may not to know to how to
    interpret a -ve 999. So we need to report back to them on a paper claim. That's why the need to capture and store the XML message.
    Were you leaning towards subscribing to the failed messages in production? There could be multiple claims with in a given ST. Won't the failed message include the entire transaction set, even if there is only one bad claim? Worse case scenario, I was thinking
    about having a custom schema with all enumerations and length requirements relaxed. I think that requires a separate path, correct?

  • EDI validation Error: Segment GS(Functional Group Header) at guideline

    Hi,

  • EDI validation error

    I am getting following error message 
    Error: 1 (Field level error)
    SegmentID: CTT
    Position in TS: 123536
    Data Element ID: CTT01
    Position in Segment: 1

    when I check data my CTT looks like  CTT~061766
    I tried to set allow leading and trailing space and zero under validation in trading partner configuration. It is perfectly works in my local machine.
    When I do same setting on my test environment , it doesn't work and give above error. 
    Please suggest me what could be wrong there.

    There are no such property anywhere else than on the Agreement!
    Can you do one more test
    - Submit the document that is working (without the leading zero)
    - Have a PassThru SendPort subscribe to it, and set this Port in a Stopped state.
    - Examine the Context of the suspended message, and verify that the Agreement where "Allow leading and trailing zeros" are in fact recognized as the Agreement used for this message.

  • Biztalk EDi schema Validation

    Hi Experts,
    Currently we are validating the EDI IFSCUM schemas at the pipeline level, now I have a requirement in such a way that the message should come to Orchestration and in Orchestration i will validate the incoming message against schema validation method. 
    I tried to keep the edivalidation set to false and dropped the message with wrong record count in UNT record.
    But this message is failing at port level, i need to pass this message to orchestration.
    How can i bypass these kind of validations at port level?

    Hi Sandy,
    Some of the EDI validations are performed always irrespective whether the EDI validation is enabled or not.
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb226369.aspx
    Refer the msdn article above. This specifies the validation that are performed always and validation which are done only if the EDI Data validation is enabled.

  • EDI over WCF request-response port - how to catch failed messages and send response over a 2 way port

    I'm using BizTalk 2009.  I've written an orchestration for accepting 270's and returning 271's, and another for 276's and 277's.  The incoming and outgoing EDI stream is wrapped in XML.  I've published the schema using the WCF publishing wizard,
    and I am using the WCF-WSHttp adapter.  I have custom pipeline components to unwrap and wrap the XML, and to handle the NACK generated by the adapter.  Everything works fine if valid EDI is received. 
    However, I'm challenged with handling failures from the EDI disassambler.  The specification I've been given is to return a 271 or 277 in all cases (or as many as possible).  What I would like to do is catch the failed message, generate a (271
    or 277) response, and return that response over the 2-way port.  I know how to enable failed message routing and how to subscribe to the message if it were to come in over a one-way port.  It seems that this cannot be done when the message comes
    in over a 2-way port. 
    Any suggestions on how this can be done?

    I should have mentioned that turning off as much EDI validation as I can in the pipeline is already part of my approach.  However, to my knowledge, there are some validations (such as incorrect segment count in the SE) that cannot be disabled. 
    Regarding the TA1/997/999 - because this is a real time transaction, I'm not generating any.  Still, to take your suggest, I decided to generate a 997, thinking I could at least subscribe to it and if the 997 indicated a failure, to
    generate the response (in the form of a 271 or 277) that my trading partner is expecting.  What I found was that the 997 was being returned through the send pipeline of the 2 way port, EVEN WHEN I set RouteAckOn2WayPort to False on the receive pipeline! 
    This produces even more work for me, because now I have to "eat" the acknowledgement so that the 271 or 277 can get through.

  • BizTalk EDI pipeline not failing due to NTE^02 exceeding 80 characters

    Hi,
     I have a case where special characters are used in the free form description that is placed in an NTE^02 segment in an outbound EDI document. The maximum length allowed for NTE^02 is 80 characters. But if a special character (Europe) is in the text,
    it is supposed to be counted as 2 characters not 1. This is not being caught by the BizTalk EDI pipeline and file is failing EDI validation on the partners side due to this. 
    Any ideas if this is a bug or I am not setting a configuration?
    Thanks!

    Then you need to check their Companion Guide, or ask them, exactly what character set they're expecting.
    If they say
    "SóME TEXT" is 10 characters, then they are likely expecting Basic, or maybe Extended which is single
    byte encoding (it's just ASCII), but you are sending UTF8.  "ó" is a valid Extended single byte character but in UTF8 would be double-byte.
    X12 supports UTF8 so double-byte characters are allowed, provided both sides agree.
    Whatever the correct value, the better place to set it would be in the Agreement.
    Thanks. I'll it out.
    The partner is using UTF-8 which is what i am setting (and default). So does that mean "ó" is correctly being seen by the partner as occupying 2 characters lengths?

  • Capturing errors in Biztalk 2010

    I'm pretty clear on how to catch errors by setting "routing for failed messages" and using the ErrorReport properties in the filter of a send port. However, I'm testing a solution by creating a file that contains a bad claim. It creates an error
    in the Event Log when it is dropped, but the port is not picking up the message. The claim errors out due to a missing required element, so I'm assuming the error is created at the schema level. Does that have anything to do me not being able to capture it?
    My filter is:
    ErrorReport.ReceivePortName
    ==
    HS837P_Incoming
    And
    ErrorReport.ErrorType
    ==
    FailedMessage
    [EDIT] Another thing I just noticed is that the message is not getting suspended. Maybe that means that the ErrorReport properties are not getting set.
    Thanks.
    Raymond

    There is one other issue that comes up after I enable EDI Validation. I am now able to capture the messasge and write it out to a folder. however, I really need to write it out in the same format that I received it. That is X12. However, if I use a pipeline
    with an EDI Assembler it will fail because it was a bad file to begin with. The only way I'm able to write it out is with XMLTransmit or Passthrough, which means an XML file. How can I write it out in the same format in which it came in?
    Thanks.

  • Should I use orchestration

    I am currently in the process of porting an existing application (Biztalk 2004) to a newer version of Biztalk. The current solution takes multiple types of EDI documents, modifies it if its necessary and sends it to our legacy system to be loaded and processed.
    This process is developed using a combination of Receive Ports, Pipeline component, Send Ports and Maps, Schema and Message Queue Components. This solution uses 10 send & receive ports to handle various aspects of the process such as Bursting EDI into
    individual messages, Transforming Messages, Error handling, Edi Validation and Batching of Edi Messages. All the modification of EDI is done using Message Queue Components.
    This solution does NOT use orchestration at all. I am considering implementing the current solution as a Biztalk orchestration. I have read up a bit on orchestrations and worked thru few sample applications. But I am still very confused over what benefit
    of using orchestration, if a solution can be developed without it. I am sure I am missing something here. What additional benefit orchestration gives that the current solution does not?

    The use of Orchestrations are sort of religious when it comes to BizTalk desgin, so I'm just going to leverage what I think:
    The use of Orchestrations is never a goal in itself. They should be used if required. In other words: If your integrations cannot be done through simple Content-Based Routing using Pipelines, Maps, Ports and Subscriptions then you start to look into Orchestrations.

  • Development of:  SAP- XML IDOC Validation - Mapping - EDI-VAN

    Hi ,
    I am novice to SAP.
    I would appreciate, if you would suggest best way to achieve following Scenario:
    With Minimum Cost. No High Cost middleware products, beacuse we have only following two scenarios.
    1.  SAP -
    > XML IDOC (SHPMNT01) Validation -
    > MapTo- EDI 404_4010------> FTP Loation
    2. SAP----

    > VAN
       A. XML IDOC ZSHPEXT1 Validation  error send error message to SAP
       B.SMTP-  Email if there is IDOC validation error or error in message.
    Just for information: We have ERPConnect.
    Thank You,

    Hi
    Thanks for the answer.
    Regarding the FM IDX_XML_TO_IDOC, I thing that I can't use it directly because I have to write a program, I have to read the Xml file (that is located in a special directory of the operative system) and then use the FM putting xml data in the XML_DATA import parameter.
    It's correct?
    Bye

  • Validations and Mapping EDI-XML .

    Hi,
    Can anyone explain me the process of mapping xml-edi to SAP and validations with respect to business.
    An example could really help.
    Thanks

    The inbound xml file contains data that needs to be put into a format that sap can understand. There are several ways to do this. You can use XI or any other transaltion utility. Alternately, your xml file can be converted using custom programs using XSLT as a translation tool.
    SAP has a number of ways of loading  external transactional data into the system. You can use IDOCs or web services, or other methods. The jist of it is you will need to convert your xml file into a format SAP understands.

  • How to call Party Validation in the Custom EDI Pipeline component

    Hi ,
    There are two business divisions in our organizations. We have one party. Now we have to enable the ISA13 duplicate functionality for one business divisions. But the sender will send the same ISA06 and ISA08. Inorder to enable it may followed
    the below approach,
    Receive the File -> Change the ISA08 value -> Publish -> Validate with the party (Check ISA13 enabled) .
    For the above process, created a pipeline component to change the ISA08 value. Now how do we can enable the message to get validated for "Validate with the party (Check ISA13 enabled)".
    Thanks,
    Sathish

    Thank you boatseller for the swift response.
    Yes I have created a new agreement with Check ISA13 enabled.
    Yes i have placed the custom component(replace ISA08) in the Decode stage, then i used the builtin EDIDisassembler in the Disassembler stage, It is working fine. But i don't want to disassemble the message. Just required to validate the Party with its agreement.
    And let it get streamed to next stage.
    Please advice.

  • EDI Invoice Verification - Suppressing Validation

    We receive most of our supplier invoices via EDI. We don't use FI/CO (yet) but interface out of SAP to a non-SAP system. For reasons to do with the quality of our data, we don't want to validate inbound invoices against PO's but merely post them as liabilities against the supplier. Is there a way of doing this? We have tried manipulating the flags in the V_076S_M table without success. I know this is a slightly bizarre requirement but any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Peter,
    You can use the Directposting to G/L accounts with MM functionality by activating the user exit EXIT_SAPLMRMH_015 based on the SAP version you are using  or you can directly use the FI functionality as you are not posting against a PO.
    Please let me know if you require further details.

  • Transformation issue with EDI 841 xsd generated by document editor
