COMPAQ Software Product Description PRODUCT NAME: Compaq DEC/EDI for OpenVMS VAX and SPD Alpha, Version 3.2B 53.14.05 DESCRIPTION Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) enables users to electronically exchange structured business documents such as Purchase Orders, Dispatch Advice and Invoices with their Trading Partners using International, National and Industry-specific EDI standards. DEC/EDI offers application developers all the facilities necessary to EDI-enable Business Applications within an Enterprise. Extensive communication options are also provided to facilitate inter-enterprise communication via EDI VANs or direct with Trading Partners using industry standard protocols. DEC/EDI uses a Client/Server architecture to provide EDI services to local and remote Business Applications hosted on multivendor platforms within an enterprise. A complete list of add-on services now available for DEC/EDI is under the section Software Requirements - Optional. DEC/EDI Application Client The DEC/EDI Application Client facilitates the integration of local and remote Business Applications to the DEC/EDI Server, to make them EDI-capable. A TCP/IP sockets based protocol is used to link the locally or remotely installed DEC/EDI Version 3.2 or Version 3.2B Application Clients to the DEC/EDI Server. DEC/EDI Version 3.2B Application Clients are available today for: o Compaq Tru64[TM] UNIX[R] o Compaq OpenVMS[TM] VAX and Alpha[TM] o HP-UX[R] o Sun[R] Solaris[R] These DEC/EDI Application Clients can interoperate with a DEC/EDI Server running on Compaq Tru64 UNIX, Compaq OpenVMS/VAX or Compaq OpenVMS/Alpha platforms. August 2000 AE- Q8WKD-TE Compaq DEC/EDI for OpenVMS VAX and Alpha, Version 3.2BSPD 53.14.05 The interface provided by the DEC/EDI Application Client is file- based and allows for the Business Application to POST and FETCH files to and from Trading Partners via the DEC/EDI Server. The DEC/EDI Application Clients can be invoked via the Command Line Interface (CLI) and the Application Program Interface (API). The CLI can be run from a suitably coded script file (command file) or invoked interactively. The DEC/EDI Application Client also provides the following functions: o Enables local and remote Business Applications to extract document status information via the TRACK Command, from the DEC/EDI Server. o Enable Business Applications to POST and FETCH files to and from other DEC/EDI Application Clients attached to the same DEC/EDI Server. The information exchanged between DEC/EDI Application Clients is mapped from the input format to the recipient format by using mapping tables based on an EDI Message definition. o POST and FETCH documents to and from the DEC/EDI Server and by-pass the Mapping or Mapping and Translation functions, for transmission and receipt to and from trading partners via the DEC/EDI Communication Component. DEC/EDI Server The DEC/EDI Server consists of the following components that reside on the same node: o DEC/EDI Mapper Component o DEC/EDI Translation Component o DEC/EDI Communications Component o DEC/EDI Operational Management Component Mapper Component This is a table-driven file mapping function with a set of data manipulation operators for selected classes of commonly encountered EDI application data. This capability is used to convert data from the existing Business Application file format to that required for Translation into the Trading Partner format as well as formatting data received from the trading partner to the file format expected by the Business Application. 2 Compaq DEC/EDI for OpenVMS VAX and Alpha, Version 3.2BSPD 53.14.05 The Mapping Process consists of: o Data Specification The customer defines the application file structure, and parameters for mapping between the application file and the EDI standard through a forms or PC based user interface. The interface then generates a conversion table that is used to map data from/to the application file formats. o User Defined Mapping The Mapper allows fields to be moved directly to the destination or to have built-in mathematical/logical/string operations to be performed upon the fields. The user interface guides the user through this process. The user can define and add code through "hooks" for more complex processing. o Data Definition Extracts The Mapper also allows for the extraction of Application file record definitions from Oracle@ CDD/Repository. The components of the Mapper Component are: o Mapper User Interface (UI) The UI consists of a set of menus and forms that allow users to create, modify, and compile mapping tables. o Mapper Run-time The Run-time process uses the information in a compiled mapping table to map data between the Business Application file and the format required for transmission and receipt to and from trading partners. Translation Component The Translation Component takes data that has come from the Business Application and transforms it into the standard EDI formats required for transmission to the Trading Partner. It also takes incoming EDI data that has been received from a Trading Partner by the Communications Component, and converts it into the format that is suitable for the Mapper to decode and pass to the Application Client. The Translation Component provides the following features: o Support for multiple versions of messages (transactions) and EDI standards o Supports the transmission of 8-bit national character sets o Compliance checking at Trading Partner level 3 Compaq DEC/EDI for OpenVMS VAX and Alpha, Version 3.2BSPD 53.14.05 o Trading Partner specific Code Translation o User-selectable control number generation o Test transmissions o Event and Error logging o Supports the EDIFACT CONTRL and X12 997/999 messages to enable acknowledged receipt of messages. An editor is provided to enable users to customize the messages delivered with the product to create new messages for industry specific and Trading Partner specific messages as well as create new messages based on ANSI X12, EDIFACT, and TRADACOMS™ syntax rules supported by this version of the product. The editor also allows for the creation of new versions of EDI Standard dictionaries. Trading Partner agreement details, including the message formats being used, are recorded in the Trading Partner Profiles. The Translation Component uses the information in the Trading Partner Profiles and the Message Database to perform compliance checking and to check the validity of the transaction. The Translation Component provides support for the following EDI standards: o EDIFACT - Implements ISO 9735 - Supports character sets A and B, lower-case a-z, and 8-bit national character sets. - Supports industry-specific transactions adhering to the EDIFACT ISO 9735 syntax - Supports the EDIFACT CONTRL message to enable acknowledged receipt of messages. o ANSI X12 - Automatic generation of Functional Acknowledgments and reconciliation of Functional Acknowledgments - Supports industry-specific transactions adhering to the ANSI X12 syntax o TDCC - Supports all modes including UCS/WINS - Automatic generation of Functional Acknowledgments, 997 and 999 and reconciliation of Functional Acknowledgments 4 Compaq DEC/EDI for OpenVMS VAX and Alpha, Version 3.2BSPD 53.14.05 - Support for the following types of messages is not provided: * Messages which contain two mandatory instances of the same segment, at the same level, when other segments appear between the two instances (for example, Transaction 994 and its use of the K2 segment) * Messages which use EDIFACT enveloping o ODETTE - Support for Version 2.0 of ODETTE o TRADACOMS - Implements the TRADACOMS (October 1989 Update) syntax and messages Communications Component The Communications Component supports a range of communications options including OSI-based protocols. It enables users to send EDI transmissions either through EDI VANs or direct to their Trading Partners.
