EDI File

Represents an EDI X12 document attachment for a Batch Folder, providing access to EDI-specific processing and normalization.

Remarks

The EDIFile attachment type enables Batch Folders to interact with EDI X12 files (application/edi-x12), supporting detection of delimiters and normalization of EDI content.

Usage

• Assign the EDIFile type to a Batch Folder by attaching a .edi file.
• Enables EDI-specific processing, such as delimiter detection and content normalization, for downstream parsing and extraction.

Integration

The EDIFile type is automatically selected for files with the .edi extension or application/edi-x12 MIME type.

For more information on the EDI X12 standard, see X12 EDI.
