Description

Description:
BusinessConnect does not generate a 997 when a malformed X12 transaction is received.  For example, an interchange received with more ST segments than SE segments will not generate a 997.
Symptoms:
As described above.
Cause:
Normal operation of the BC EDI Protocol

Resolution

The BC EDI protocol will parse the inbound X120 data  for basic validation and retrieval of the  Sender/Receiver ID and Qualifier before sending it to the Instream engine.  If these basic constructs are not correct (such as data containing a extra ST segment, but does not contain the corresponding SE segment), the BC engine will not generate a 997 AC because the inbound data is malformed.

Issue/Introduction

BusinessConnect EDI Protocol does not generate a 997 and/or a TA1 when an inbound message is received.
