Issue/Introduction

Why is "Transmission File Format" not available in BC EDI TRADACOMS 6.x ?

Resolution

“Transmission File Format” in EDI 5.x was defined by the EDI 5.X EDI translation/validation engine’s API, so the Operation Editor lets the  customer specify this value. EDI 5.x passed this value to the engine while validating and converting.  With EDI 6.x, the Instream engine does not support this functionality.
