SYMPTOMS
In Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) schemas, some fields have minimum length requirements. HIPAA implementation guides suggest that you can use trailing spaces in a field to satisfy the minimum length requirement. However, when Microsoft BizTalk Server Accelerator for HIPAA parses a field that has trailing spaces included to satisfy the minimum length requirement, BizTalk Server Accelerator for HIPAA rejects the document and you receive an error message that is similar to the following:
An error occurred in BizTalk Server.
Details:
------------------------------
[0x1449] The data contains a field value ("P") that doesn't meet minimum length requirement for tag "TS837Q1_2010BB_N401__PayerCityName" (minimum length is 2).
[0x1433] The parser failed to convert the document due to processing errors. See the following messages for details.
[0x1441] Document #1 within submission "{9069455D-7562-4675-B5A0-120F7BFE2F97}" was returned as a document that was not valid from the parser component named "BizTalk.ParserHipaaX12.1". The most frequent cause is a document specification that is not valid or else the component was unable to determine the necessary routing fields. Verify that the proper specification is defined for this data.
