Both the Full Code List tab and the Implementation Code List tab contain five menu options on the Full Code List tab – File, Edit, View, Reports, and Help. When either tab is active, you can add a code, modify a code, delete a code, or search for a code for a specific element; change to the tree view of the standards library; or create two code-related reports.
Adding a new code to the
full code or implementation code list
Highlight the element on the Elements tab of the Create Transaction: <transaction set> window.
Make the Full Code List or Implementation Code List tab active and choose New from the File menu.
Either the New Element Code or the New Implementation Code window displays
Enter the following information on the New Element Code/New Implementation Code window:
Element – the number and description of the EDI element to which you are adding a code.
Code – the EDI element code you are adding to the element.
Select Next to add another code or OK to return to the Create Transaction: <transaction set> window.
Modifying code in the full
code or implementation code list
Highlight the element on the Elements tab of the Create Transaction: <transaction set> window.
Make the Full Code List or Implementation Code List tab active and choose Properties from the Edit menu. Either the Element Code Properties or the Implementation Code Properties window displays.
On the Element Code Properties or the Implementation Code Properties window, you can change the same information you entered on the New Element Code or New Implementation Code window.
Deleting code from the
full code or implementation code list
Highlight the element on the Elements tab of the Create Transaction: <transaction set> window.
Make the Full Code List or Implementation Code List tab active and choose Delete from the Edit menu.
When you choose Delete, the program asks you to confirm that you want to delete the code before it is permanently removed.
If you select Yes, the code is permanently removed from the selected element in the library, and you return to the Create Transaction: <transaction set> window.
If you select No, the code is not deleted, and you return to the Create Transaction: <transaction set> window.
Finding code in the full
code or implementation code list
Choose Find or Find Next from the Edit menu on the Create Transaction: <transaction set> window when either the Full Code List tab or the Implementation Code List tab is active. The Find dialog box displays.
In the Find dialog box, enter the text you want to find, and select:
Find to search for the first occurrence of the text
Find Next to search for additional occurrences.
Select Cancel to return to the Create Transaction: <transaction set> window.
Changing to the transaction
tree view of the standards library
Choose Standard Tree from the View menu on the Create Transaction: <transaction set> window.
When you change views, you automatically exit from the standards library and must reenter in the new view.
Producing a code-related
report
You can produce one report when either the Full Code List tab or the Implementation Code List tab is active. The Element Values report includes detailed information about the values in the elements in the full code list. See the Reports chapter for an explanation of this report.
