Re: Question on mapping using Mercator
Dan,
There is an example provided in the "examples" directory that demonstrates
the HL indexing that Michael was talking about.
You will also find that you will need to modify your EDI type tree to set up
the HL looping required for your trading partner(s).
If you compare the 856 "transaction" and "LoopHL" in the example "myedi"
type tree to the respective objects in the generic EDI type tree you will
see how they copied the LoopHL to make a ShipmentHL and an ItemHL (You will
probably need the OrderHL.). Then they added these loops at the end of the
appropriate HL Loop.
