Generating a compliance map

Use the steps in the following procedure to generate your compliance map.

StepsGenerating a compliance map

After defining the compliance map, creating the transaction to be checked, and setting up the trade agreement that links the map to a trading partner, you generate the compliance map.

  1. In ECMap’s main window, select Utilities > Generate Compliance Map.

    The Generate Map window displays three options and four buttons: Run, View Log, Exit, and Help.

  2. Use the Generate Error for Ignored Elements check box under Options when compliance maps have been generated from implementation guides. If this option is checked, the compliance map generates an error if elements that were designated as not used contain data.

  3. Click Run.

    A text box appears in the Generate Map window containing messages about the generate process; for example, creating map transaction files, creating and mapping record files, creating compliance rules, creating flow, generating map – processing application files, processing rules, processing master element and condition tables, and processing reference files.

    When your compliance map is finished, the message, Map Generation Completed Successfully, displays.

    If the map did not generate successfully, you can view the log file.

  4. Click View Log and the Generate Log window displays.

  5. After you review the information in the log, click Cancel on the Generate Log window to return to the Generate Map window.

  6. Click Exit on the Generate Map window to return to the main ECMap window.
