2.4.5 Trading Partner Data Interchange Attributes

LANSA Composer defines and stores a set of data interchange attributes for each Trading Partner.  These are defined to accommodate some of the attributes commonly used in EDI and other forms of data interchange.

While LANSA Composer pre-defines fields to hold these attributes, the program performs only limited validation or enforcement of their entry and values..  To permit maximum implementation flexibility, LANSA Composer leaves the use and values of these attributes largely to you according to your own circumstances and conventions.

Some of these values are, however, important for the operation of the transaction document framework as supplied.  Refer to Trading Partner Data Interchange Attributes for more information.

To review or change the data interchange attributes for a Trading Partner, select the required trading partner in the trading partners list and then click the Data interchange tab in the command handler area.

To modify a value, type the new value.  Remember to click Save when complete to save your changes.

For information about accessing data interchange attribute values for a trading partner in a processing sequence, refer to Trading Partner (*TRADINGPARTNER) Built-in Variable Qualifiers.
