In the New Map Definition window | Map Properties tab | Map Type drop-down list, select one of the EDI-to-EDI map types:
EDIFACT to EDI
HL7 to EDI
X12 to EDI
For example, if the input is EDIFACT and the output is EDIFACT, HL7, or X12, select the EDIFACT to EDI map type.
When you select an EDI-to-EDI map type, the entry in the Direction field of the New Map Definition window automatically defaults to “IN” for inbound because all EDI-to-EDI maps are treated as inbound maps. There is no change in the rest of the fields in the Map Properties tab, Map Directories tab, and Map DSN tab of the New Map Definition window.
