Tips for Copying an EDI Map

Creating an EDI map from scratch can be time-consuming, but does copying a map really save time? Always use caution and follow the tips below:

• Use the Map preview report to look for all variables and nested maps that may not be obvious.
• Review all Text fields and Qualifiers – these are often custom fields.
• Check for SQL statements
