Configuring Fallback Local Host Settngs (X12-Transaction Set Settings)
To process an incoming interchange, BizTalk Server must determine the schema that it needs to use in processing and validating the interchange. This consists of determining the target namespace associated with the schema, and determining the schema to be used. In this page of the fallback agreement, you specify the fallback target namespace. How BizTalk Server determines the schema is described in Agreement Resolution, Schema Discovery, and Authorization for Received EDI Messages.
Note
This topic applies also to HIPAA-related settings.
Prerequisites
You must be logged on as a member of the BizTalk Server Administrators or BizTalk Server B2B Operators group.
To configure local host settings for transaction sets
In the BizTalk Server Administration Console, right-click the Parties node, and then click X12 Fallback Settings.
In the X12 Fallback Settings dialog box, in the X12 Agreement Pages tab, under the Transaction Set Settings section, click Local Host Settings.
Select Convert implied decimal format Nn to base 10 numeric value to convert an EDI number that is specified with the format Nn into a base-10 numeric value in the intermediate XML in BizTalk Server.
Note
After this conversion, the intermediate XML may fail length validation. This occurs because the number in the base-10 numeric format includes a decimal, making its length one greater than the number in Nn format. You can resolve this issue by adding a value of 1 to the minimum/maximum length value.
Select Create empty XML tags for trailing separators to have the interchange sender include empty XML tags for trailing separators.
For Target Namespace, enter (or select from the drop-down list) the target namespace that BizTalk Server uses to determine the schema to process the received message with.
Click Apply to accept the changes, or click OK to enter and validate the changes, and then close the dialog box.
