Description

Description:
When using the "Increment transaction control number across interchanges" option under the <trading partner>>Protocols>X12>Control Numbers tab, the control numbers do not increment.

Resolution

To resolve this issue, the map file must follow the format below: 

For example, the default XE map file of  00501/005010X220A1/834 shipped with BCEDI

    <Map>
      <From key="T-834/S-ST_1/E-329_1_02" />
      <To key="834/1///2">
        <Rule value="RULES.JavaAPI.GetValue {TRANSACTIONCTRL TRANSACTIONCTRL}" />
        <Rule value="RULES.Value.ReplaceWith {TRANSACTIONCTRL}" />
      </To>
    </Map>

This format must be preserved in order for BC to increment values correctly.
