Conversion Agent - EDI Parser Problem

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are writing a parser for EDI message type 850.

When we are giving Repeating Group and Marker "ST", it is taking more fields also, having this value "ST", which are in other Segments other then ST.

and reading that ST fields as a segment,

the output data is not correct due to this problem,

Please help,

Where are you writing this parser? Using Seeburger for this? Or you are doing it in File content conversion?

Hi VJ,

thanks for your reply,

We are writing this Parser at Conversion Agent for EDI 850 & 856, X12 Version 4030.

The example file for the problem is here :

ST/856/00001~

BSN/00/013721/20070806/1808/0001~

HL/1//S~

TD1/CTN25/17////G/198/LB~

TD5//2/HRMN/M/HERMANN TRUCKIN~

REF/BM/67450800000020664~

REF/CN/125173569~

REF/PUA/125173569~

PER/IC/dan/EM/dan@1212.com~

DTM/011/20070806/1807~

N1/ST//92/93922~

ST is a segment, when we are going to give this as Marker in Repeating Group, it is picking ST of N1 Segment also.

'/' is seperator for fields and '~' is seperator for lines.

Hi ,

Ideally it should not happen.Did u specify N1 also in repeated group?

ST and N1 Repeated group should be at same hierarchy level.

Just to dig into the issue you can change ST after N1 to other value and check whether parser is still giving error or its running correctly.
