Hi All, We are thinking of migrating from mercator 6.7.1 to DSTX 8.0 The main deterrent is that it seems we have to recompile all the maps in order to make them compatible with the new version. This is because our server admin group decided that all resource registries need to be different...

Hi All, This is a pretty tough and interesting problem. Im stuck and am quite confused about how to proceed. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I built a map which uses the input type tree as EDI. The type tree consists of ISA, GS, ST, UNA, UNB, UNH , SE, GE, IEA, UNT, UNG and UNZ...

Hi, Can anybody tell what the performance impact is if this value is set to the lowest i.e. 10 or if disabled (-1). Was looking to get some numbers or at least whether the event sevrer would be significantly slower. We have about 500 maps out of which about 200 would be run maps. I would like...

Hi, I was wondering whether it would be better to create individual systems for every map we require to translate our partner's data. That means even though it is the same data format (EDI X12 and same message and version), should we still create a separate system (.msd) as compared to...

Hi, I was trying to use the feature for Data Audit Log (accesible by clicking on the organizer button and it is the third tab in the window which pops up. This is in mercator 6.7.1) I tried to show the data for X12 type trees in the audit log and it worked fine. I just had to drag and drop the...

Hi, Does anyone have experience with MS excel files being processed by mercator. 1) Can an MS excel file be defined as an input to mercator in the input card of a mercator map/system? how would mercator read the data as text and not some unprintable characters? 2) I used the DDEQUERY...

I have a trading partner who wants to send me EDI data. The catch (there always seems to be one) is that they want to send the data without any delimiters, only segment terminators which are <NL>'s. The data for each field is to be padded with spaces to the max length (in case the data isnt...

I have a partner who is sending me a description field in the input file of length 300. I have an internal file format which needs to map the entire descriptioin into 6 lines of 50 each. My internal format can go upto 10 lines of 50 chars each. The partner can also send me the data of any...

Hi, I have a LOOKUP function where I would like to examine an EDI X12 315 file and pickout the R4 segment when the location code in the R4 and the location name match the code and name in the B4 segment. In case there is no match found, i want to do the search only on the location code and...

Hi, When a map accesses a DB (either input or output), do we always require the .mdq file to be present for the map to access it? I have a problem where my map in production is trying to use the user id that I specified in test to log on to the DB. I have placed the prod user id and pwd in the...

Hi, I have a map which takes multiple records in the input and created an xml output. I notice that my map seems to skip some records in the input file for no reason at all. I managed to isolate a couple of the problem records. I passed only those records as the input and still the map would...

I am trying to split a file into multiple smaller files. A partner sends us data (X12) in the format below: ISA GS ST SE ST SE GE IEA ISA GS ST SE GE IEA I need the output to be multiple files, each with one ST SE within one GS GE and one ISA IEA. How do I do this? My map works when there...

Hi, While designing a new process what would be the correct way to implement out of the two options: 1) Use a separate system for each trading partner who needs to receive the data. This means that there would be many mercator system files one for each partner which would result in a number of...

Anyone have any ideas on how to call a mercator map from a JAVA class? How does one utilize a mercator map as a webservice?

I was wondering whether mercator provides the caching functionality for Database stataments and information extracted from the database. I went through the DB Interface Guide and read about the bind statement. However we have many cases where certain information needs to be extracted repeatedly...

Hi, I face an issue with the processing performance of my mercator systems. We are using Windows NT 3GB memory and 3 GhZ processor. However sometimes files seem to get backed up a lot. We receive a lot of file over the day.. almost 100000 in a day. THe size of the files could also vary from...

Hi, We use mercator maps to write to a JMS queue. When we ran the system in production, we found that we were getting errors in the launcher file like (Target Not Available) THis error was not reported for all messages, only some. I believe it could be because of the idle connections becoming...

I have an issue which needs fixing. There is a system I have built which should enable upto 20 instances of the maps to run simultaneously. However when the input files are about 50000, the system seems to process files one by one. Why is this happening and how can I overcome this?

Hi, How do I get my type tree to accept messages of diff formats? I am using the std type tree from mercator and would like to be able to accept both the formats below: First: ------- ISA*..........~ GS*.... Second: -------- ISA*..........~GS*..... Thanks

Hi, I have a map which is writing to a JMS queue. When testing the map from my desktop, the map was writing successfully to the JMS queue and the application was being able to read the message properties and the message body separately. However when I deployed it to our staging box, i found...
