Running the compliance map

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

StepsRunning the compliance map

After successfully generating your compliance map, you are ready to run it.

  1. In ECMap’s main menu, select Build > Run Map or click the Run icon.

    The Run Inbound Map window displays.

  2. Enter all of the required information on the Run Inbound Map window. Refer to Chapter 17, “Running Maps” for detailed instructions on how to run inbound maps.

  3. Click the Required tab of the Run Inbound Map window to make it active:

    1. In the Inbound EDI File text box, type the full path and file name or browse to the location of the file to be checked.

    2. Click the Compliance Check box to indicate that the data should run through compliance checking. Checking this box invokes the -k runtime switch. See the Runtime Technical Notes in ECRTP Reference Guide for information on how this switch operates.

    3. In the Log Type text box, click the down arrow and choose either Expanded Text Log or ODBC Log as the Log Type. Compliance checking will not work correctly without a log or with a non-expanded text log.

  4. Click the Option 1 tab of the Run Inbound Map window to make it active and do the following:

    1. Click the All Trading Partner Default check box to indicate that the ALL TradePartner definition be used. This allows the compliance map to be run with any sender.

    2. Check the Ignore Trading Partner Mailbox and Ignore Trade Agreement Mailbox to test maps in the ECMap MDP (Map Development Program).

    3. Check the Create Bad Transaction Log check box to set up an override file location for data which fails the compliance checks.

    4. In the Company Identification text box, type the information or browse to the location of the company ID information. This field is required.

  5. Click the Option 2 tab of the Run Inbound Map window to make it active:

    1. Check the Zero Fill EDI Non-Null Numbers check box.

  6. After you enter the required information, click Run Map to execute the compliance map.

    Refer to “Mailbox chart” to see where the program places the good and the bad data. The location depends on choices that you made on the tabs of the Run Inbound Map window (or the equivalent switches that were set if the map is being run from a command line).
