Question

(Deutsch) Wie kommuniziert man im EDIFACT DESADV eine Verpackungshierarchie?

,

Sorry, this entry is only available in Deutsch.

Die EDIFACT Struktur sieht folgendes vor:

  • GRP10(details of all package levels)
    • CPS (CONSIGNMENT PACKING SEQUENCE )
    • GRP11(A group of segments identifying packaging, physical dimensions, marks and numbers, quantities, date and time information, handling information and information about packing at this level. )
      • PAC(PACKAGE)
      • QTY(QUANTITY: A segment to specify the quantity per package described in the PAC segment.)
      • GRP13(A group of segments specifying markings, labels, and packing numbers. )
        • PCI(PACKAGE IDENTIFICATION: A segment specifying markings and/or labels used on individual physical units (packages) described in the PAC segment. )
        • GRP14(A group of segments giving package identification numbers and, where relevant, delivery limitation information.)
          • GIN(GOODS IDENTITY NUMBER: A segment providing the identity numbers of packages being despatched.)
  • GRP15(A group of segments providing details of the individual despatched items.)
    • LIN
    • etc,
    • etc

D.h. die GRP10 wird von äußerer Verpackung bis zur innersten Verpackung aufgebaut, erst dann kommen die LINs. Geschwister in der Hierarchie werden natürlich auch wiederholt und mit deren Unter-Verpackungen und LINs angegeben. Es müsste demnach etwa so aussehen:

erste Verpackungsebene

CPS+1‘
PAC+2++201‘ Anzahl Paletten

zweite Verpackungsebene

CPS+2+1‘(die erste Palette, Kind von CPS+1)
PAC+35++CT (Anzahl Kartons auf erster Palette)
GIN+AW+60101‘ Paletten Nummer

dritte Verpackungsebene

CPS+3+2‘(der erste Karton, Kind von CPS+2)
PAC+1+1:35+CT‘(1 Karton, fixe Anzahl=1)

PCI+33E‘

Question

Convert umlauts

The customer transmits umlauts in the article description. Is it possible to insert a rule here so that the umlaut is converted to UE?

There is currently no specific mapping function in eBiss which converts umlauts. But you can use the Replace() function.

Question

Alternate selection

Is it possible to include a rule in the mapping – is the field not filled, then set a “1”?

Yes, with an alternative selector.

Question

How can I read EDIFACT messages?

There are a number of commercial editors for EDIFACT messages. A free editor is also sufficient.

Notepad++ has proved its worth. This makes it easy to insert a line break after the segment separator to make the file easier to read.

In this case, it is preferable to record a macro inside Notepad++ that performs the search and replace of the quotation mark with quotation mark and line-switching to keyboard shortcuts.

In the FAQ How to highlight EDIFACT segments? in color is also mentioned how to highlight EDIFACT segments in color.

Question

In the UNB segment we have to change UNOC+3 to UNOC+4. How does that work?

,

As a rule, the containerizer generates the UNB segment. However, if the UNB segment is to be influenced in an Edifact document, the UNB segment must be triggered in the corresponding mapping with a rule record and the desired data element must be operated with a mapping rule. The remaining UNB data elements are then created/operated by the containerizer.

Attention

The default setting of the syntax version number is 3. The EDIFACT containerizer in eBiss checks the syntax version number. If it is greater 3, the date format in the UNB segment will be adapted. In addition, a * is set in UNA segment instead of a space. Finally, you must ensure that the outgoing Edifact document corresponds to the syntax version according to ISO 9735:1998

In the requested case, you need a mapping rule like in this snapshot:
