Overrides Tab

The Overrides tab of the Trade Agreements window differs for inbound and outbound maps. For inbound maps, the window contains mailbox override information. For outbound maps, it contains both mailbox override information and override information for the receiver on outbound envelopes. For outbound maps, the Overrides tab is the same for X12 and HL7, but slightly different for EDIFACT.

Mailboxes are used for routing. They allow one pass of mapping to create multiple files. The ability to send data to multiple mailboxes eliminates the need for multiple passes over the data. Mailboxes allow you to send different messages for the same trading partner to different mailboxes. This is a capability that is often required by trading partners who have different functions in multiple locations. It is also used to route (pass through) inbound messages to different internal mailboxes. For example, you might use this feature to keep test maps or compliance maps separate from production maps.

Mailbox information entered on the Trade Agreement window overrides information entered on the Trading Partner window. (You can also override the use of this mailbox or the trading partner mailbox at runtime by selecting the Ignore Trading Partner Mailbox or Ignore Trade Agreement Mailbox check boxes on the Option 1 tab of the Run Inbound Map window.)

Outbound receiver information entered on the Trade Agreement window overrides information entered on the Trading Partner window. This information is used to populate the outbound EDI envelopes.

X12, EDIFACT, and HL7 tabs – Trade Agreement window. The Trade Agreements window has a specific tab for each of the standards. Only one standard-specific tab is active at a time, and it is the tab for the standard used in the map linked to the trade agreement. The standard-specific tabs differ for inbound and outbound maps for each standard. Each tab contains information that is used only in that standard or in the case of EDIFACT, in that Syntax version of the standard.
