Denise and list,

The problem with supplying trailing element separators is that X12.6
paragraph 3.7 prohibits them. Therefore, a translator which enforces this
particular requirement of the standard would reject the segment.

Gary, as is often said, god is in the details. Sell it.

I don't see a system problem populating the trailing elements but why would
you if your not going to use them? Just gets stripped off in translation and
adds to the character cost if going through a van. Both segments are the
same...

All,

A colleague is asserting that it is okay to populate trailing element
separators preceeding a segment terminator.

Here is an example:
N1*SF*Gary***

Whereas, all the years I worked in EDI, the ANSI standard, as I understood
them was that the segment should be translated like this:
N1*SF*Gary

Gary
