StartTransactionHeader Method

Creates a new EDI transaction set header on the current document.

Syntax

ANSI (Cross Platform)
int StartTransactionHeader(const char* lpszCode);

Unicode (Windows)
INT StartTransactionHeader(LPCWSTR lpszCode);
- (void)startTransactionHeader:(NSString*)code;
#define MID_X12WRITER_STARTTRANSACTIONHEADER 22

IPWORKSX12_EXTERNAL int IPWORKSX12_CALL IPWorksX12_X12Writer_Do(void *lpObj, int methid, int cparam, void *param[], int cbparam[], int64 *lpllVal);

Remarks

When called, a new transaction set start (ST or UNH) segment is created and set as the current segment. You should then set the values on said segment before adding creating transaction data segments.

The Code argument should specify the transaction code you want to create (for example, "850" or "INVOIC"). This value, together with the EDI specification and the version provided in the StartInterchangeHeader method are used to locate a matching transaction set schema on the components schema cache. You must make sure that a corresponding schema has been successfully loaded into the component by using the LoadSchema method before trying to call StartTransactionHeader.

Error Handling (C++)

This method returns a result code; 0 indicates success, while a non-zero error code indicates that this method encountered an error during its execution. If an error occurs, the GetLastError() method can be called to retrieve the associated error message. (Note: This method's result code can also be obtained by calling the GetLastErrorCode() method after it returns.)
