## EDI

- Electronic Data Interchange- Developed in the late 70's to build an architecture for a standard to interchange data and documents
- EDI has smaller file sizes the xml
- X12 is an alias for EDI (Same standard)

## Authentication

1. Authentication is restricted to the surrounding technology
2. The ability to encrypt or decrypt the actual EDI documents relies on

## EDI Groups

1. Functional Group
2. Transaction Set-
3. Beta Elements-
4. Transactional Group-
  1. Segments
    1. Each Field has a Header
      1. Each Value is delimited by the delimiter (Usually an asterisk)

## EDI 101 Overview

### EDI Documents Definition

The Accredited Standards Committee X12 is a standards organization. Chartered by the American National Standards Institute in 1979, it develops and maintains the X12 Electronic data interchange and Context Inspired Component Architecture standards along with XML schemas which drive business processes globally. **X12** defines and maintains transaction sets that establish the data content exchanged for specific business purposes. Transaction sets are identified by a numeric identifier and a name. Each transaction set is maintained by a subcommittee operating within X12's Accredited Standards Committee.

X12 standard is used by hundreds of businesses in supply chain and other industries. Some of the most popular messages are 850, 810, 856, etc.

Earl Owen Co. will not be supporting all supply chain standard EDI documents. Below is a list of EDI documents that are supported by Earl Owen Co. or could be supported in the future.

- **EDI 846** - Inventory Inquiry
- **EDI 850** - Purchase Order
- **EDI 855** - Order Acknowledgement – sent in response to EDI 850 to confirm the receipt of the purchase order from the buyer
- **EDI 856** - Advance Ship Notice is to describe the transfer of shipment and tracking delivery information
- **EDI 810** - Invoice (electronic version of the paper invoice
- **EDI 997** - Functional Acknowledgment
- EDI 820 - Payment or Order Remittance (_requested by_ _Turn5_)
- EDI 860 - Order Change Request – used by buyers to request a change to a purchase order submitted previously and is primarily used when a supplier wants to communicate updates to an open order
- EDI 832 - Price/Sales Catalog
- EDI 830 - Planning Schedule with Release Capability
- EDI 870 - Order Status Report

## General EDI X12 4010 Standards

### X12 Terminology

#### Interchange

A group of data consisting of three components: an Interchange Control Header, a series of functional groups, and an Interchange Control Trailer. The Interchange Control Header and Interchange Control Trailer encloses the series of functional groups. An interchange can be thought of as a large envelope from your trading partner. Inside that envelope are individual, smaller EDI mail envelopes.

#### Transaction Set and Message

The terms transaction set and message mean essentially the same thing. The differences are found in the details of their structure. Both transaction sets and messages can be defined as follows: a collection of business-related data called segments that are exchanged between two trading partners. Each segment in a collection is followed by a segment terminator.

#### Segment

A segment is a logical grouping of data elements or a collection of elements that has a segment identifier, followed by one or more data elements. Between each data element is a data element separator. In X12, the same segment can be used for different purposes. This means that a field's meaning can change based on the segment.

#### Segment Identifier (ANSI ASC X12)

A code that uniquely identifies a segment as specified in the appropriate segment directory. For example, the ANSI ASC X12 Invoice Name segment identifier is "N1."

The data element is the smallest named unit of information in the X12 standard. Data elements can be broken down into types. The distinction between the types is strictly a matter of how they are used. The types are

#### Element

A unit of information within a segment.

#### Data Element

![](RackMultipart20211103-4-1r9q76x_html_af014f6188696792.png)The smallest unit of information in a transaction set or message for the X12 Standard. It is like a field in a database. The elements contain the actual data. They consist of qualifiers and values.

##### Simple Data element

if a data element occurs in a segment outside the defined boundaries of a composite data structure, it is called a simple data element.

##### Composite Data Element

A collection of two or more data elements. If a data element occurs as an ordinally positioned member of a composite data structure, it is called a composite data element. A telephone number is a simple example of a composite. It has a three-digit area code, which must precede the three-digit central office code, which must precede the final four digits.

Each data element has a unique reference number, and it also has a name, description, data type, and minimum and maximum length.

#### Element Delimiter

The data element delimiter is a special character that separates the data elements.

In an X12 message, the various delimiters are part of the syntax, dividing up the different elements of a message. The delimiters used in a message are defined in the interchange control header, the outermost layer enveloping the message.

For this reason, there is flexibility in the delimiters that are used. No suggested delimiters are recommended as part of the X12 standards, but the industry-specific implementation guides do have recommended delimiters

#### Data Element Separator (or EDI delimiters)

A character used to separate elements in a segment.

EDI separators are used to separate the different EDI items from one another. It is imperative that a valid set of delimiters is used, and the various types of delimiters are placed at the correct position within an EDI file.

| If not otherwise agreed the default separators per standard are defined as: |
| --- |
|

| EDI Standard | Component | Data Element | Repetition | Segment | Sub Element |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **X12** | \> | \* | ^ | **~** | : |

 |

_Note_: It is important to note that errors could result if the transmitted data includes any of the characters that have been defined as delimiters. Specifically, the existence of asterisks within transmitted application data is a known issue in X12 and can cause problems with translation.

#### Sub-element Separator

A character used to separate the data elements of an ANSI ASC X12 composite data element. Currently, sub-element separators are reserved for future use.

#### Segment Terminator

These are the special characters appearing at the end of a segment to indicate the termination of the segment (i.e., ~). Usually not a printable character in ANSI ASC X12. The character can be defined by the customer and can be any character as long as they only appear as the segment terminator to avoid breaking the translation or parsing of the data.

#### Envelope

The control information, such as identifiers and addresses, that surrounds data. The data is bound together by header and trailer information. EDI Envelope - EDI files are a combination of transactions (or messages, or business data) wrapped up in functional groups, which are themselves wrapped up in interchange envelopes. Three levels of nesting. See [X12 Interchange Control Structure](#_X12_Interchange_Control) for more details

| EDI Standard | Interchange Header | Group Header | Message Header | Message Trailer | Group Trailer | Interchange Trailer |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **X12** | **ISA** | **GS** | **ST** | **SE** | **GE** | **IEA** |

|
 ![](RackMultipart20211103-4-1r9q76x_html_44fde3631390acbb.png) |
| --- |

#### Qualifier

A qualifier is sometimes used to indicate what the values in the data elements are. In the following example DTM01 = 038 which means "Ship No Later". The shipment would need to be shipped by midnight on 07/30/2021. Autoanything uses code 038.

![](RackMultipart20211103-4-1r9q76x_html_aa1483f9b37764fb.png)

#### Loops

Loops are used to combine similar segments together; usually loops contain a parent-child relationship. For example, the N1 segment loops here twice. The first portion contains the Vendor's address information with child segments of N3 and N4 that contain the vendors address. The second portion contains the Ship To Store address with child segments of N3 and N4 that contain the vendors address. Loops are sets of repeating ordered segments. In X12 you can locate elements by specifying:

- Transaction Set
- Loop, for example "PO loop"
- Occurrence of the loop
- Segment, for example BGN
- Field number, for example 01
- Occurrence of the segment (if it is a repeating segment)

PO1\*1\*1\*EA\*282.65\*\*SK\*BDRILQ15SCK~

PO1\*2\*2\*EA\*54.49\*\*SK\*KAN60-1030~

### X12 Interchange Control Structure

Trading partners send data in a very specific format called the Interchange Control Structure. There are three basic levels of ASC X12 envelopes:

1. The interchange envelope
2. The functional group envelope
3. The transaction set envelope

The outermost envelope of EDI data is the interchange. An interchange consists of three components:

1. ISA Header segment
2. A series of functional group
3. IEA Trailer segment.

Header and Trailer segments contain sender and receiver addresses. They envelope the series of functional groups.

![](RackMultipart20211103-4-1r9q76x_html_245cc06744f08cce.png)

### X12 Envelope Control Number Validation

This is to ensure proper start and end of each envelope is mapped to each individual EDI document.

The below elements must match as aligned:

|
- ISA13 (Header) must match IEA02 (Trailer)
- GS06 (Header) must match GE02 (Trailer)
- ST02 (Header) must match SE02 (Trailer)

 |
| --- |
| ![](RackMultipart20211103-4-1r9q76x_html_c772ba9c3f630f24.png) |

#### The control protocol

| when you send interchanges to a trading partner, the interchange envelope has a control number that is used to uniquely identify the interchange. That control number is an integer that typically increments by one each time you send an interchange to that particular partner.
 |
| --- |
| The SE01 value should be the number of segments from ST to SE inclusive |
| ![](RackMultipart20211103-4-1r9q76x_html_971c65ee514a5ce3.png) |
| **To pass proper EDI X12 validation:**
- The ST02 is the transaction Set Control Number and should be matching the SE02 on the SE (Trailer or Closing Envelope).
- The GE01 value is the number of transaction sets Included in this Function Group
  - i.e. GE01 = 5, if five purchase orders are included on the same envelope
- The IEA01 is the number of functional groups included on the envelope
  - i.e. IEA01 = 2, if 850(s) and 810(s) documents are included on the same envelope
 |
| ![](RackMultipart20211103-4-1r9q76x_html_e8d89593f137f510.png) |

ISA11 Interchange Control Standards Identifier is default to "U" as it means the EDI standard is using U.S. X12 standard

ISA12 Interchange Control Version Number is default to "00401" which is the X12 version, in some cases referred to 4.01 or 4010.

|
 |
| Each segment is conformed with a consistent pattern of elements between the segment name and the segment separator.
All separators are defined in the ISA interchange header. ISA is positional and contains 106 characters. The first 3 are the segment tag 'ISA' and immediately after (4th character) is the data element separator. The last two characters in the ISA are the component data element separator and the segment separator. Sometimes segments can be postfixed and things such as CR\LF can appear at the end of each segment.
At position 106 in the ISA element is always the segment separator (~) in EDI X12 version 4010 (also known as 4.01 or 00401) |

#### ISA and ISA

| The ISA is the Interchange Control HeaderThis is the beginning segment of almost all EDI documents. This is the outermost envelope, all of the EDI data is placed within this layer. The purpose of this segment is to identify the sender and receiver, date, time and control number information. This segment must match the IEA trailer segment.

| Single message, enveloped within the header and footerA Transaction Set has a three-digit code, a text title, and a two-letter code, for example, 850, Purchase Order (PO).
The Transaction Set is composed of logically related data grouped into units called segments. For example, one segment used in the Transaction Set might convey the address: city, state, postal code, and other geographical information. A Transaction Set will contain multiple segments. For example, the address segment might be used repeatedly to convey multiple sets of address information.
The X12 standard defines the sequence of segments in the Transaction Set and also the sequence of elements within each segment. The relationship between segments and elements can be compared to the relationship between records and fields in a database environment. |

 |
| On the DTM Segment, the first date that has one of the listed qualifiers in the DTM01 field is captured as the estimated ship date. The estimated ship date is used to determine if a shipment is going to be late. These are the codes that are used to qualify estimated ship dates:

| _ **Code** _ | _ **Definition** _ |
| --- | --- |
| _038_ | Ship no later than |
| _039_ | Ship week of |
| _066_ | First scheduled ship |

### X12 4010 Documents Definition

#### 846 – Inventory Inquiry

The EDI 846 transaction set is an electronic version of a paper Inventory Inquiry/Advice that complies with the ANSI X12 EDI specification. EDI 846 Inventory Inquiry/Advice is used by the supplier to notify a purchaser about stock status and availability. This EDI message is to exchange information about amount of goods currently on hand in various inventory holding locations, such as distribution centers, outlets and warehouses etc. It is used to communicate about inventory between manufactures, suppliers and resellers. EDI 846 is important mainly due to the increase of drop shipping business and e-commerce, which requires up-to-the-minute inventory updates.

EDI 846 Inventory Inquiry/Advice Key Data:

- Identifying number

The EDI 850 Purchase Order is an electronic version of a paper purchase order transaction set. The EDI 850 is sometimes also referred to as "PO". It is used by buyers to place an order for goods or services from a supplier. The supplier sends a 997 functional acknowledgment back to the buyer to confirm the receipt of the EDI 850 Purchase Order. Buyers then send an EDI 855 Purchase Order Acknowledgement to the supplier to confirm the requirements in the purchase order.

EDI 850 Purchase Order Key Data:

- Purchase order number & date
- Shipping details & instructions
- Item brand names, SKUs, or model numbers
- Payment terms, such as on delivery or in 30 days

#### 856 – Advice Shipping

An EDI 856 transaction is also known as an Advance Shipping Notice or ASN or Manifest. It is used to electronically exchange the contents of a printed packing slip between commercial trading partners. A supplier sends an ASN in advance to inform the trading partner that shipment is on the way so that trading partner can make arrangements to receive the merchandize. Suppliers requiring ASNs may also require GS1-128 barcode labels. The barcode label works in conjunction with EDI 856 and contains the supplier's vendor, carton and ASN number.

EDI 856 Advance Ship Notice Key Data:

- Purchase Order (EDI 850) information

### Create Document Entities from Document Standards

1. First map fields from Customer documentation

1. You can name properties whatever you want, as long as the Paths match up to the documentation
2. Biggest thing that the jobs does is
  1. Use the EDI service to serialize the entity into the document we created
  2. Using the mappers to map the data from one entity to another
  3. Uses Sypro or Epicor to submit that data into the system
    1. Also the reverse which is the exact opposite
      1. Only difference is that inside the mapping you are creating an empty EDI value and assigning the values

1. All the job is doing, is using the EDI service to list the documents
2. The EDI service has a default method of serializing documents into document classes that we had set up
3. Whatever your connecting to, use the translations.
  1. It will take the items in the document based on entity we set up and will call the mapping methods

## ISA/Header

1. ISA's are standardized across documents. Will rarely be customized.
2. This is similar to the header/footer envelopes in an XML file.

## Body

1. The body of the document is highly customized based off of client needs.
2. Will need to review their specifications and ensure that the properties all match up exactly.

List of all the segments that are going to be involved with the groups

![](RackMultipart20211103-4-1r9q76x_html_9d764eeed63673c3.png)

1. Details of what goes into each section
  1. This is what you will see as a reference for the path
  2. These paths will be the same for each document

### ![](RackMultipart20211103-4-1r9q76x_html_9c2e920fa962ea71.png) Setting Up a Job

1. Write the properties to the document and then use the Push method to send.
