I am relatively new to the webMethods world. I have performed all the mappings for an ANSI x12 outbound 810 and would like to wrap it with the ST/SE segments. It is my understanding that I can call validate then convertToString for this but for some reason after calling this service I don’t have a valid ST/SE structure. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance
It would be helpful if you could paste your sample edi file here.
Thanks
Did you do an envelope process at the beginning? I tried to recreate your issue and was successful. I got the record structure until GE and then there was undefData.
I think it could be something about setting the delimiters for the EDI file.
Good Luck and if we dont find out the solution soon, the experts will help us for sure.
Thanks
ST/SE isn’t considered part of the envelope. It’s part of the transaction set. Therefore it is part of the 810 record definition. You need to set a value for ST01 (in this case, to 810). Set SE01 to an empty string and convertToString will plug-in the segment count. You can either set ST02 and SE02 yourself, using wm.b2b.edi.util:controlNumber, or set them as an empty string and convertToString will add in the control number.

Worked like a charm Rob. Thanks for your help!!!
Glad to be of help. Perhaps you can “Pay It Forward”. 
“Pay It Forward”… great concept, depressing movie. My daughter has it on her list of “movies I will never see again”.

Hi,
i am doing mapping from delimited flatfile to 835 EDI mapping in 6.0.1.
i am done with segment mapping , and when i do converttoString service i am getting NullPointer exception.
i am passing the EDI document as input and ns record as actual EDI document.
what could be the problem here?
when i look into the EDI document from my mapping , only i see ST01 as 835 and ST02, SE01 and SE02 all are blanks.
any help is appreciated.its some what urgent.
Thanks,
Rao.
Make sure your mapping of segments are perfect(IData Values).
And Instead of giving nsRecord,try with passing the ffschema param(EDIFFSchema.X12.V4010:T835)of convertToString,This should work.
Above mentioned schema will be stored in EDIforTN Package.
HTH.
Version 6.1 My 850 SE is not counting my records correctly. Consistantly I have 4 extra items in my se count. I am sending a group of ST/SEs in one ISA envelope. It seems like it is counting my ISA GS IEA and GE in every ST Loop.
I am using
wm.b2b.editn.TAP:getEDITPAData
Looping over the values
wm.b2b.edi:convertToString
wm.b2b.edi.util:addGroupEnvelope
wm.b2b.edi.util:addICEnvelope
wm.tn.doc.xml:routeXML
Any suggestions.
Below an example of 850 Outbound

Hello,
What exactly is happening in your "Looping over the values " section? And, are you manually setting the segment count or letting convertToString do it for you? Have you tried it with only less than or greater four transaction sets? Have you tried to set this up with a minimal amount of data like 1 shipping request on one transaction? Good day.

Hi Cheryl,
ST/SE isn’t considered part of the envelope. It’s part of the transaction set. Therefore it is part of the 810 record definition. You need to set a value for ST01 (in this case, to 810). Set SE01 to an empty string and convertToString will plug-in the segment count. You can either set ST02 and SE02 yourself, using wm.b2b.edi.util:controlNumber, or set them as an empty string and convertToString will add in the control number.
Hope This helps
Sorry i mentioned wrong in the previous post.
Set the ST01 to 850 for your case.
Ramesh
Cheryll,
Please follow as Ramesh suggested,just set empty value to SE01 using setValue and convertToString will do all the rest gives exact count of segments.
HTH,
RMG.
Cheryll,
One small suggesstion please do not disclose your EDI document data to outsiders,its always advised to maintain data confidential.Even if you put also just put some xyz test data etc…
Regards,
