Enter the following on the Option 1 tab of the Build Acknowledgement window:
No Trading Partner – not applicable for Functional Acknowledgements.
All Trading Partner Default – when selected, the program defaults to the ALL Trade Partner if it does not find a trading partner/trade agreement match when the map is run.
Ignore Trading Partner Mailbox – when selected, the mailbox set up for the trading partner on the General tab of the Trading Partner window is not used. This is generally the choice for Functional Acknowledgements. You can effectively route data when you enter the full path of the EDI output file on the Required tab.
No EDI File option – not applicable for Functional Acknowledgements.
Update All Trading Partner Record – select to use the control counts of the All Trade Partner - regardless of whether a specific trading partner match was found. If a trading partner match was found, all of the information for that specific trading partner is used to populate the EDI envelopes - except for the ISA_OUT_NO. Instead, the ISA_OUT_NO for the All Trade Partner is used. This option is chosen (and used every time a map is run) when a company must have all of its transactions in sequential order.
Ignore Trade Agreement Mailbox – when selected, the override mailbox set up on the Overrides tab of the Trade Agreement window is not used. This is generally the choice for Functional Acknowledgements. You effectively choose a mailbox when you enter the full path of the EDI output file on the Required tab.
Trace Type – can be Short Trace, Long Trace, or No Trace. You generally choose Short Trace for Functional Acknowledgements during development.
Route EDI Type – choices are No Routing, Route Out, or Route In. Routing allows you to pass the EDI data directly into the Trading Partner mailboxes. If Ignore Trading Partner Mailbox is selected, this option is grayed out. This is generally the choice for Functional Acknowledgements since you can effectively route data when you enter the full path of the EDI output file on the Required tab.
Company Identification – allows you to associate a specific company profile with this map. You should use the same company profile that you used on the inbound map that created the input to the 997 map.
