Hi Gerry, Correct is not the issue here. You already know that it is not. You have a couple of choices. Go ahead and don't send the PO301, contact your trading partner and explain the issue and ask if it can be changed (good luck on that one) or ask if you can send it and he can just ignore it. Inbound, I've found, maps are only written to pick up what is wanted and most just ignore what the receiver does not need.
Alternatively, you could be sneaky and just send it and see if they complain. Of course, if you shut down their system, they won't be very happy. Good Luck, Leah ________________________________ From: Gerardo Santillana <[email protected]> To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, May 10, 2013 10:07 AM Subject: [EDI-L] 855 Mandatory element not needed Hi I need to send an 855 to a customer, according with his specs he does not want element PO301 in segment PO3, but this element is a standard mandatory element. I can do it but, Is it correct to force the system not to send a mandatory element?
