After having imported the EDIFACT message definition, you can compose such EDI data by invoking a <<EDIFACTAdapter>> or <<X12Adapter>> action as shown in the examples below.

How to debug an adapter call is described on Debugging a UN EDIFACT Adapter Call.

Figure: Composing UN/EDIFACT Messages

Similar to Parsing UN/EDIFACT Messages, you can use static or dynamic matters to specify the output of the compose action:

  • Static Composition
    Specify a <<FileAlias>> on the adapter action to define to which file the EDI data will be composed.
  • Dyamic Composition
    Specify the file name with the name parameter or receive the composed EDI data in a Blob (data).
