Flat file validation fails if the HIPAA Accelerator is installed and the first node of the schema is "X12_EnvelopeHeader" (840303)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft BizTalk Server 2002
- Microsoft BizTalk Server Accelerator for HIPAA 2.0
SYMPTOMSIf you try to validate a flat file document with a schema when the first node is named X12_EnvelopeHeader, you may receive an error message that is similar to the following:
The required "TS834A1__BGN_BeginningSegment" record was not found
in the inbound document. The parser failed to convert the document due to
processing errors. See the following messages for details.
A dialog
box with an error message that is similar to the following is generated in the Microsoft BizTalk Mapper
when you try to use the Test Map command with a flat file
document and when the first node of the inbound schema is named
X12_EnvelopeHeader:
Unable to import
native file C:\Native_file\834flat.txt because the
data is corrupt. Choose another file or fix the data in the native
file.
Note C:\Native_file\834flat.txt is a placeholder for the
actual flat file document that you are testing with. The Test Map command is available on the
Tools menu in the BizTalk Mapper. CAUSEThis behavior occurs when the BizTalk Server Accelerator for
HIPAA 2.0 is installed on your computer that is running Microsoft BizTalk Server 2002. The
BizTalk Server Accelerator for HIPAA 2.0 installs an updated version of the
Microsoft BizTalk Server Validate Document Instance Library file (Validatedoc.dll). When you install the BizTalk Server Accelerator for HIPAA 2.0,
the existing Validatedoc.dll file is replaced by a new file that is named Hipaavalidatedoc.dll. The
new file interprets a schema
with the first node named X12_EnvelopeHeader as a HIPAA compliant document.
If you validate a non-HIPAA file against a schema with a first node named X12_EnvelopeHeader, the BizTalk Server Validate Document Instance
Library file generates the error that is mentioned in the "Symptoms"
section.RESOLUTIONDo not use a schema with a first node that is named
X12_EnvelopeHeader to validate flat files that are not HIPAA compliant on a
computer that is running the BizTalk Server Accelerator for HIPAA 2.0. If you
use flat file schemas with a first node that is named X12_EnvelopeHeader to
validate non-HIPAA compliant flat file documents, you must rename this node to
avoid the error that is described in the "Symptoms" section. Alternatively, you can validate non-HIPAA compliant flat file
documents against a schema with a first node that is named X12_EnvelopeHeader on a
computer that is running BizTalk Server 2002 that does not have the BizTalk Server
Accelerator for HIPAA 2.0 installed.STATUS This
behavior is by design.REFERENCES
