New Features

  • Added the new configuration property Timezone offset, which enables you to generate EDI payloads with date-times in the header segments in your chosen timezone.

  • Error details when EDIFACT messages fail in Read operations now contain additional information for easier troubleshooting.

Fixed Issues

  • Acknowledgment request elements (UNB09) in the CONTRL acknowledgments were set to 1. (CONN-8356)

  • Application reference elements (UNB07) in the CONTRL acknowledgments were incorrectly set to the application reference code of the incoming message that was being acknowledged. The element is now set to CONTRL. (CONN-8356)

  • Interchange date and time of preparation in CONTRL acknowledgments were incorrectly set to the date and time fields in the incoming EDIFACT message payloads. They are now set with the current date and time when the acknowledgment is generated. (CONN-8356)

  • When some messages in a batched inbound EDIFACT interchange fail in validation, individual errors were not reported in the top level Error object. They are now reported in the top level Error object. (CONN-8361)

New Features

  • Added a new Write batch operation and a corresponding Configuration tab. The new operation receives an input containing multiple outbound EDIFACT messages for the same partner and merges them into a single UNB interchange.

  • Added a new configuration property, Truncate values exceeding the length limits, for Read, Write, and Write batch operations to optionally truncate data element values when ignoring length validations.

Fixed Issues

  • Data element values are no longer truncated by default when enabling length validations in Read and Write operations (CONN-7723).

New Features

Fixed Issues

  • Improved how the requestAck (UNB09) and testIndicator (UNB11) setting handles the configuration for the EDIFACT Write operation (CONN-7293, CONN-7294).
