Create XML Schema from EDIFACT Message Definition

You use the Create XML Schema from EDIFACT Message Definition dialog box to provide conversion information for the EDIFACT to XML Schema document wizard.

Fields

Version

The UN/CEFACT version ID.

Message/Description

The message types (and their descriptions) associated with the version specified in the Version field.

Include annotations describing each element

Whether or not you want the generated XML Schema to include annotations that are part of the EDIFACT message.

Generate enumerations for fields that have lists of values

Whether or not you want the generated XML Schema to include enumerations for fields that have lists of values.

Use long element names

Whether you want the generated XML Schema to use long or short versions of segment names (ACA0101 versus ACA0101-CurrencyCoded, for example).

Use "unbounded" instead of large values for maxOccurs

Replaces maxOccurs values of 100 or greater with "unbounded". This option ensures that the generated XML Schema can be successfully validated by Xerces processors, which sometimes have difficulty processing maxOccurs with large values.

Batch schema/Interactive schema

Indicates whether the EDIFACT messages are being used in batch or interactive mode.
