The Map command performs at one time all of the rules and mapping associated with the segments in a specified level. The user assigns a level to one or more segments that he wants to have processed as a unit. This level does not need to be in the flow, but can be used exclusively for aggregation purposes. When the user executes the command to perform the actions associated with that level, the RTP maps all of the elements in the segments at that level and executes all of the rules linked to those elements. The mapping of a specific level can be triggered by the existence of data or by a specific trading partner. This rule can be used only on outbound maps.
Under Parameters, select the up arrow next to the Map Level text box. The Levels window displays next to the Rule Command window, with a list of all current levels. Double-click the level that you want to map with this rule command and the program automatically enters it in the Map Level text box.
If you have not yet created the level, you can do so on the Levels window by choosing New from the File menu. (See the Map Flow chapter for instructions on adding a new level.)
