Every week I run into people new to ANSI/EDIFACT EDI who have a lot of preconceived notions..in addition to misunderstanding the meaning of ISA14..... . - Element delimiter is ALWAYS "*" - Delimiters are always the same for all interchanges in any one physical file - Sender/Receiver IDs at functional group level are always the same as IDs at ISA level - There is some one-to-one relationship between ISA 12 and GS06 version values, e.g., if GS06=''004010" then ISA12 MUST equal "00401" - ANSI EDI data is *always* formatted one segment per line (with CRLF termination) - Elvis frequently visits the Mall of America in Minneapolis - ANSI/EDIFACT EDI is obsolete, having been superceded by XML-format documents (which are easy to implement because there is never any ambiguity regarding the meaning of a tag) - If you've never touched an ANSI/EDIFACT EDI system but are otherwise bright and hardworking you can implement a new system and do it well, from scratch - by yourself - without any training or support from an EDI professional. All absolutely false, except of course the Elvis thing. I just threw that in to see if everyone was paying attention. Michael C. Mattias Tal Systems Inc.
