Creating Sample EDI Transaction Files

Sample EDI files have been generated to map the sample EDI File Layouts. The Sample EDI Files contain delimiters for all fields, but do not contain data. This allows adding test data to the sample files without having to remove extraneous data from them. Copies of these sample files should be populated with sample data and used during testing.

The following figure shows the first few lines of a sample EDI file.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the The first few lines of a sample EDI file. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.
