Trouble With Some X.12

[raholland79]

This isn't an issue with the library - but I need some guidance.

I have a 214 (Transportation) with a loop of places

ISA*00*          *00*          *02*SCAC           *ZZ*MGCTLYST

I have the ISA and functional group working just fine, I have the ST within a message in the functional group GS. From there I can't figure out how to get the rest of the file going starting with B10 and the N loops.

Code I have this far:

    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var grammar = EdiGrammar.NewX12();
            using (var stream = new StreamReader(@"C:\sandbox\drdispatch\EDI\assets\214-MGCTLYST-SAMPLE.EDI"))
            {
                var interchange = new EdiSerializer().Deserialize<Interchange>(stream, grammar);
                Console.WriteLine($"Receiver Id: {interchange.Receiver_ID}");
                Console.WriteLine("--Groups");
                foreach (var group in interchange.Groups)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("----Messages");
                    foreach (var msg in group.Messages)
                    {

                        Console.WriteLine($"ID Code {msg.IdentifierCode}");
                        Console.WriteLine($"Control # {msg.ControlNumber}");
                    }
                }

                Console.ReadKey();  
            }
        }
    }

        }

    }

[raholland79]

If I can get some guidance I can contribute some full examples for 214, 204, 210, and 990 classes/test files that would cover the transportation industry.

For loops aka custom logical structures I would use the EdiSegmentGroup attribute. Try something like this and tell me if it makes sense. The feature is quite new as requested in issue #13

        [EdiMessage]
        public class Message
        {
            [EdiValue("9(3)", Path = "ST/00", Description = "")]
            public int IdentifierCode { get; set; }
            [EdiValue("X(9)", Path = "ST/01", Description = "")]
            public string ControlNumber { get; set; }

            [EdiValue("9(30)", Path="B10/0")]
            public int ReferenceIdentification { get; set; }

            public List<Place> Places { get; set; }
        }

        [EdiSegment, EdiSegmentGroup("N1", SequenceEnd = "LX")]
        public class Place 
        {
            [EdiValue("X(9)", Path = "N1/0", Description = "")]
            public string FieldValue1 { get; set; }               

            [EdiValue("X(9)", Path = "N3/0", Description = "")]
            public string FieldValue2 { get; set; }    

            etc.....
        }

[raholland79]

That works - although the B10/0 is coming in null, but the places/loop works just fine.

Any idea there?

Really appreciate the help - Once I have this done I'll fork and add tests/etc for full sets of logistics/transportation files for you.

Hi @raholland79, I think you found a bug. It seems quite easy to fix so I will try to put out a beta version ASAP that covers this. Thanks for reporting back!

[cleftheris]

Hi @raholland79

The latest release fixes your issue. V1.1.0-beta is up on nuget. If you could verify that its ok I can close the issue.

[raholland79]

I'll check it now. Thanks!

None of the other sample files this company sent work, at all, and I feel it's the ISA line.

Can't get this working, which is their ISA for the 990:

ISA00 00 _02_SCAC _ZZ_MGCTLYST _160726_0836_U_00400_000002356_0T>

And their 214 has

ISA00 00 _ZZ_MGCTLYST _02_SCAC _160726_1256_U_00401_000018718_0T:

These give parse errors, presumably because of the segment bit being :

I'm not sure if it's an error of their syntax or something wonky they do that this library isn't supporting.

Checking the beta build now on the other issue!

[raholland79]

Confirmed the beta build fixes the B10 issue!

If I can get beyond the 990 and 214 not working I can probably use this and generate POCO examples for you.

@raholland79 glad we fixed issue #16 I opened a new issue to track the : colon problem: issue #19
