| The covast adapter outputs the value for this segment with leading zeros.
Any way to suppress that?
Thanks

| The leading zeros thing is how Covast interprets the meaning of the N2 data
type, which is one of way too many deviations from the ANSI X12 standard that
Covast has adopted in their program.
One solution is to define the 610 Element type used in the TDS segment as N0
and to add a functoid in the BizTalk map to multiply the value going into
that element by 100. The net effect is an N2 data type. Be sure to change the
segment and elements that you are using.
ONE VERY BIG WARNING: The Covast adapter will arbitrarily delete element
definitions, both standard and customized, whenever any new document is
imported. There is no rhyme or reason, so you should make a deployment
package to back up your definitions when you have them in a stable condition.
