270/271 5010 support

[Edwardiv1]

Is it possible to add support for the 270/271 5010 standard? So far I only see 4010 is supported.
Thanks

It's possible but we would need a configuration file similar to what is in the resources/mapping directory for the 4010 version.

Hi there. I am also interested in the support for the 270/271 5010 standard, so I am trying to resurrect this discussion. Looks like someone created a fork with such support:
https://github.com/nddipiazza/x12-parser/tree/issue_48_add_271_5010_support
Maybe it can be merged to origin?

Hi, Dev

We are facing the same issue that the server returns 271 in 5010 version, but the x12-parser only support 4010.

Also, I looked into the mapping xml and found that in 271.4010.X092.A1.xml, the valid value for ISA11 is "U". I think for other files, it can be any character, and most of the time, we can use "^" to avoid collision.

I10 Interchange Control Standards Identifier R 11 **U**

Please help take a look.

Thanks

we also need 270/271 5010 support, we have the same issue, server returns 270/271 5010.

Hi @angelaszek , There's a fork that someone created to do this. Is there a problem with it preventing being merged?

Is there any guidance on how to create the configuration file?

Thanks

I don't see a pull request for that branch.

I would use one of the existing configuration files as a template and use the specifications for that implementation to update it accordingly. Unfortunately I don't know of an easier way and it is a big undertaking.

@angelaszek You're right - looks like there's no pull request for it. I was referring to #48 and the associated XML file at https://github.com/nddipiazza/x12-parser/blob/issue_48_add_271_5010_support/src/main/resources/mapping/271.5010.X279.A1.xml

Issue #49 was blocking it, but it's from 2021, so I don't know how relevant it is any more.
Any idea whether the XML is correct or salvageable? Or is it better to start from scratch?

Thanks

[angelaszek]

I did a quick scan of that XML file and it looks correct in terms of the structure I would expect. I think it is a good place to start.

Hi @angelaszek,

I've been exploring and using this library, and so far it's working really well—I'm quite happy with it!

I was wondering if it's possible to support additional transactions. To help with that, I built a scraper that uses data from zenbridge.io/edi-dictionary](https://zenbridge.io/edi-dictionary) to generate configuration files.

I'd be happy to contribute these configs to the repo if you're interested. Here's a sample for reference:
5010_837.xml](https://gist.github.com/atkawa7/b958cb9192c08278a77bb556a0d57b91)

Let me know what you think!

We have had multiple requests for 5010 support. If you would like to create a merge request we can take a look. Thanks!

I have created configs for all but the are missing (Interchange Control Headers and Group Functional Headers)[https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19398-01/820-1275/agdaw/index.html] Maybe this could be a good starting point
