Defining Code Conversion Categories
All desired categories, such as unit of measure or carrier code, must be defined. Each category is associated with a specific table and column that contains the Oracle internal data. Any category can be used in several transactions, or several times within a single transaction.
Once defined, code conversion categories must be assigned to table columns to activate the code conversion for the specific data element.
You can use a code conversion category for the EDI Gateway's predefined list or you can define your own code conversion category.
To define additional code conversion categories:
1. Navigate to the Code Conversion Categories window.
2. Enter the category code and description.
3. To assing code conversion values to specific trading partners, enable one or more search keys.
The actual search criteria is entered in the Assign Categories window.
