Subject: TLE 4.1.4 Look Ahead (Workbench) Question
I am in the process of updating an outbound 820 document, and would like to
use the "look ahead" command; if possible, to enter a value on the BPR
segment.
(Keeping in mind, that I use the record types 2, 3 and 4 for other segments
(after
the BPR segment has been written).
The application data file has record identifiers as follows:
1 - one per employee
2 - multiple per employee; 2,2,2, and so on
3 ---|
> can have multiple 3 & 4 records per employee; 3,4,3,4,3,4, and
so on
4----|
5 - multiple per employee; 5,5,5, and so on
6 - multiple per employee; 6,6,6, and so on
7- one per employee
On one of the 3,4 "loops", the record type 3 will have a description of
"GTL", and
there is an amount field (on the same record type 3) that I want to use in
a
calculation for a data element on the BPR segment (of the outbound 820
document).
Is it possible to use the "look ahead", against the multiple 3,4 (loops as
I call them),
to find the record type 3 with the "GTL" field? In most cases, the GTL
will be found
on the last "3,4" loop.
Example of data file:
1

Any suggestions?
