EDIFACT Standards to XML component

The EDIFACT Standards to XML component converts UN/EDIFACT messages into XML with less strict ruling. By converting EDIFACT messages into XML, these messages can be processed using other components available in Dovetail like the XLST component.

Supported standards

• APERAC_D96B
• DESADV_D93A
• DESADV_D96A
• IFCSUM_D08A
• IFTFCC_D00B
• IFTMBC_D98A
• IFTMBC_D96B
• IFTMBF_D08A
• IFTMBF_D95B
• IFTMIN_D96A
• IFTMIN_D96A_UTF_8
• IFTMIN_D98A
• IFTMIN_D99A
• IFTMIN_D99B
• ORDERS_D93A

Differences with EDIFACT to XML component

This component works with transformations that are imported from custom mappings made in Altova Mapforce. They are supplied by a particular customer, but we make them available for everyone with their permission. In general these transformations are less strict and produce a different XML compared to the EDIFACT to XML component.

Example

Example for the IFTMIN D96A standard to XML transformation.
