EDI X12 Fixed Width File
Hi,
I'm working on EDI X12 Standard. Our internal format for files uses EDI X12 version 3060 but is Fixed Width (uses standard segment lenghts provided in the standard ) and not delimited (there are no delimiters).
For examples ISA segment looks like :
*ISA00company 00company ---id------ -----id-------- 0908171131U003060000086050P{*
and not
*ISA|00|company |00|company |01|id |09|id |090817|1131|U|00200|000008605|0|P|{*
How can I create a guideline from Standard Librabry of EDI X12 documents NOT using any Delimiter but only fixed lengths.
When I create a guideline from EDI X12 v 3060 say 850, it asks for delimiters.
Any help, workaround will save me from creating custom Position Flat file schemas for standard EDI files.
Thanks,
Ambadas.
