EDIFACT Standards to XML component
The EDIFACT Standards to XML component converts UN/EDIFACT messages into XML with less strict ruling. By converting EDIFACT messages into XML, these messages can be processed using other components available in Dovetail like the XLST component.
Configuration
The EDIFACT Standards to XML component has the following configuration options:
UN/EDIFACT type
Specify the UN/EDIFACT standard used in the input data.
Options
APERAC D96B to XML(default)DESADV D93A to XMLDESADV D96A to XMLIFCSUM D08A to XMLIFTFCC D00B to XMLIFTMBC D98A to XMLIFTMBC D96B to XMLIFTMBF D08A to XMLIFTMBF D95B to XMLIFTMIN D96A to XMLIFTMIN D96A (UTF-8) to XMLIFTMIN D98A to XMLIFTMIN D99A to XMLIFTMIN D99B to XMLORDERS D93A to XML
custom mappings
This component works with transformations that are imported from custom mappings made in Altova Mapforce. They are supplied by a particular customer, but we make them available for everyone with their permission. In general these transformations are less strict and produce a different XML compared to the EDIFACT to XML component.
Using EDIFACT Standards to XML
See an example for the IFTMIN D96A standard to XML transformation below.
