Integration - Decode EDIFACT - Transaction Set or Group Control Number Mismatch

Question

Note, doing this in an Azure Logic App, but hoping to maybe get faster feedback here.

Trying to decode an EDIFACT IFTSTA D96b file from a partner, receiving the error below. Have tried altering the UNT value without success.

"Error encountered during parsing. The Edifact transaction set with id '409400001' contained in functional group with id '4094', in interchange with id '4095', with sender id '{SENDER}', receiver id '{RECEIVER}' is being suspended with following errors:
Error: 1 (Miscellaneous error)
70: Error: 2 (Miscellaneous error)
71: Transaction Set or Group Control Number Mismatch
Error: 3 (Miscellaneous error)
29: Invalid count specified at interchange, group, or message levels"

Flatfile:

Answer 1

Basically, the counts in any of the Trailer values (UNT1, UNE1 or UNZ1) are incorrect in the sample.

Thanks Arindam

Answer 2

Hi Andy,

I also get the error.

Took multiple live production messages, which can be received and validated on BizTalk 2013 R3 and BizTalk 2016, uploaded the EDIFACT schema to a Logic app, and they all fail with the error

"exception": "Error encountered during parsing. The Edifact transaction set with id '1' contained in interchange (without group) with id '0540263064', with sender id '9999999999999', receiver id '9999999999998' is being suspended with following errors:\r\nError: 1 (Miscellaneous error)\r\n\t70: \r\n\r\nError: 2 (Miscellaneous error)\r\n\t71: Transaction Set or Group Control Number Mismatch\r\n\r\nError: 3 (Miscellaneous error)\r\n\t29: Invalid count specified at interchange, group, or message levels\r\n\r\n",

Have also tried to disable all EDI validation on the Integration account agreement, but it makes no difference.

Best regards

Answer 3

Nope on UNT/UNE/UNZ.

Answer 4

Schema settings in the EDIFACT agreement needed some additional info. In our case, it now looks like this, and everything decodes fine:

IFTSTA	D	96B		UNG2.1	ZZZ	EFACT_D96B_IFTSTA	…

And validations:

Default	true	false	false	false	NotAllowed	…
IFTSTA	false	false	false	false	Optional	…
