Repetitions at Component elements are not allowed and documents containing such are suspended. Repetitions of a field is determined based on the Min/Max occurs field in the schema. Min Occurs = 0 -> Element is optional Min Occurs = 1 -> Element is required Min Occurs = 5, Max Occurs = 10 -> Element is required and should repeat atleast 5 times but no more than 10 For X12, this field is specified as ISA11. For EDIFACT, this field is specified as UNA5. Receive: During document parsing, if the disassembler encounters a repetition separator in a data element, it will check to see the min occurs attribute for that field in the schema. If repetition is allowed, the document is processed fine, if not the document is suspended. Send: During serialization, the XML node of a data element is checked against the schema to see if it can repeat. If it can, then the Assembler applies the repetition separator for each repetition of the data element. Here is how it looks like in EDI and XML format Suppose we have a node in the Schema as follows BEG01: Min Occurs = 2, Max Occurs = 4 ST*810*1234 BEG*01^01*BEG02 SE*3*1234 which will be transformed in XML during Parsing as follows 810 1234 01 01 BEG02 3 1234 Hope this helps Mohsin Kalam The repetition separator is used to separate repetitions of data elements.

Suppose we have a node in the Schema as follows

BEG01: Min Occurs = 2, Max Occurs = 4

ST*810*1234
BEG*01^01*BEG02
SE*3*1234

which will be transformed in XML during Parsing as follows

810
1234

01
01
BEG02

3
1234

Hope this helps

Can you plz. explain the Repetition Seperator
that is used in ISA 11 position above 4010 Version.Plz. give an ex of EDI file where it is used so that it can be clear to everyone..

Can u Give an example of EDI file in which it is used so that it will make clear.. as i m confused between ISA11 and ISA 16. If you can give a example of EDI file then it will be very helpful.. Luking forward at ur response.. tc ..bye.. Hi Mohsin..
