Framework EDI Reference. Methods and Properties
ediAcknowledgment. MapDataElementLevelError

Maps a Framework EDI standard error code (in the data element semantic level) to an acknowledgment code.

Syntax:

• <lretval> = object.MapDataElementLevelError(<lErrorCode>, <lAckErrorCode>, [<sTransactionSetId>], [<sSegmentId>], [<sElementId>], [<sSubElementId>])

Parameters:

• lErrorCode – Framework EDI standard error code.
• lAckErrorCode – Acknowledgment error code written out to acknowledgment file. If zero, then the mapping of <lErrorCode> is removed.
• sTransactionSetId – Optional.  ID of the Transaction Set/Message that generates the error.
• sSegmentId – Optional.  ID of data segment that generates the error.
• sElementId – Optional.  ID of data element that generates the error.
• sSubElementId – Optional.  ID of component data element that generates the error.

Returns

Returns a value of 1 if successful, otherwise 0 if the operation failed.

Controlling Agency:

• X12
• EDIFACT

Remarks

When an instance of Framework EDI is created, a pre-defined set of standard error codes are mapped by default to acknowledgment error codes. This method allows users to create or remove their own custom mappings of acknowledgment codes that report errors at the data element level. In X12, the data segment reporting level is AK4. In EDIFACT, the data segment reporting level is UCD.

Example:

Set oEdiDoc = New Fredi.ediDocument
oEdiDoc.CursorType = Cursor_ForwardOnly

oEdiDoc.LoadSchema spath & sSefFile, 0

Set oAck = oEdiDoc.GetAcknowledgment
oAck.EnableFunctionalAcknowledgment = True

oAck.MapDataElementLevelError 13209, 5
oAck.MapGroupLevelError 13209, 6

oEdiDoc.LoadEdi sEdiFile

Set oSegment = oEdiDoc.FirstDataSegment
Do While Not oSegment Is Nothing
Set oSegment = oSegment.Next
Loop

oAck.Save sAckfile
