The Cross Reference Table option on the Element menu lets you associate an element with a cross-reference table to convert source values to destination values.
Associating a cross-reference table with an element
Do one of the following
Highlight the element and choose Element>Cross Reference Table>New
Right-click the element and choose Cross Reference Table>New from the drop-down list.
Enter the File Name (up to 8 characters) and a brief textual Description:
Select Create.
The program automatically creates the entries for the cross reference table, populating the EDI Field Value with the EDI code values for this element and the Description with the description associated with each EDI code value.
To complete the automatic creation of the cross-reference table, use the Options menu of the Cross Reference Tables window.
ECMap populates the Cross Reference Value with either the description or the EDI value.
For more information on creating, modifying and deleting cross reference tables, see Chapter 22, “Working with Cross-Reference Tables.”
