Question on mapping using Mercator

Subject: Question on mapping using Mercator
I'm currently working for a client who uses Mercator to handle its
mapping. I've been reading up on it some, and have gotten some help
from Dave in this group. My current question concerns mapping
outbound documents from a flat file to ANSI standards. I know now
that to map each document, you must use a functional map, since the
number of outputs depends on the number of inputs. My question is, to
loop the detail level, since you'll most likely have more than one
detail-level transaction for each header-level transaction, do you
have to create another functional map for the detail level? For
example, on an 856 ASN, you'll have one shipment, but you may have
ten different PO's going out on that shipment. Do you have to create
another functional map to map each PO level, or is there a Loop
function that will create each PO as a loop? Thanks in advance for
the info.
