Definition

Definition

Refers to the reference ID of the target segment in the DME Engine format tree.

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, called an identifier in the DME Engine, to recognize the data record and assign it to the corresponding segment in the format tree. The DME Engine makes this assignment using the reference ID that was defined for the particular segment.

You need to specify a reference ID for each segment of the format tree that is to be used in an assignment rule to link the segment to a data record in the incoming file.

Dependencies

Example

The data record "005BUPA001SMITHCONSULTING123450000468739" is identified as a record for a business partner by means of the character string "BUPA" in position 4 through 7.
