Definition

Refers to the character string in an incoming file that the DME Engine uses to uniquely identify a data record.

Use

Each data record in an incoming DME file must contain a character string that uniquely identifies the record. The DME Engine uses this character string (identifier) to recognize the data record and assign it to the corresponding segment in the format tree.

You need to define an assignment rule for each segment of the format tree, in order to link the segment (via the identifier and segment reference ID) to a data record in the incoming file.

Dependencies

Example

The data record "005BUPA001ANDERSONCONSULTING123450000468739" is identified as a record for a business partner by means of the character string "BUPA" in position 4 through 7. For this data record, a segment is defined in the format tree with the reference ID "PARTNER", and the following assignment rule is defined:

Rule No.    Identifier    ID Offset    Ref. ID of Tgt Segmt
