The EDIFACT Tab for Syntax 3 contains the following information:
CONTRL Message Requested/Expected – indicates whether a CONTRL message is expected back from the receiver of this message. If a CONTRL message is expected, the program writes certain information to the log during mapping that enables it to process the CONTRL message. Select:
Interchange Level – if you and your trading partner have agreed in an Implementation Agreement that the receiver of an EDIFACT message will return a CONTRL message containing a UCI segment indicating whether the interchange-level UNB segment was received and whether it was syntactically acceptable.
Message Level – if you and your trading partner have agreed in an Implementation Agreement that the receiver of an EDIFACT message will return a CONTRL message containing a UCM segment indicating whether a message-level UNH segment was received and whether it was syntactically acceptable.
Consider Unacknowledged if Not Received After – enter values that tell the program the period of time in which you expect to receive a CONTRL message. If the CONTRL message is received after this time period, it is considered overdue. If you use EC Gateway, this allows EC Gateway to report on overdue acknowledgements.
Time Units specifies the unit of measure (DAYS, HOURS, MINUTES, or SECONDS) for the time period during which an acknowledgement to your outgoing message must be received.
Select the actual number of units of time (1 – 99) after which an acknowledgement is considered overdue.
