The normal outbound run has the parameters illustrated below.
rmapout <full-path EDI output filename> <map> <transaction/message code> -t <message/ transaction> -dt <full-path trading partner directory> -dg <full -path map directory>
When the trading partner and the map directory are the same, the command line can be shortened by using the –dm directory in their place, as shown below:
rmapout <full-path EDI output filename> <map> <transaction/message code> -t <message/ transaction/> -dm <full-path trading partner and map directory>
The first three parameters are always required and must be in the following order:
<full-path EDI output filename>
<map>
<transaction/message>
The three other required parameters do not have to be in any specific order, but they must be preceded by the appropriate “-letters” flag.
-t <transaction> – specifies the code of the EDI transaction/message being mapped.
-dt <directory> – specifies the directory that contains trading partner information.
-dg <directory> – specifies the directory that contains the generated files – map files, cross reference tables, and log files.
When the trading partner directory and the map directory are the same, the –dm switch can be used in place of both the –dt and –dg switches.
-dm <directory> – specifies the directory that contains trading partner information and generated files; map files, cross reference tables, and log files.
