Actually, ours currently goes through a translator. We upload/download XML documents to/from our provider, who then runs them through their software to convert them to edi and send them along their way.
I pull the edi of the documents themselves, so I can get the envelope reference numbers, otherwise, the 997 information wouldn't be of much value.
