GeSegment¶
GeSegment models the X12 GE functional group trailer, the closing segment that pairs with a GsSegment header to bound a functional group within an EDI interchange envelope, reporting how many transaction sets the group contained and echoing the group's control number for pairing validation*.
Purpose¶
- Represents the GE segment identity via
SegmentIdreturning the literal"GE"(BR-020). - Carries
NumberOfSets, the count of transaction sets included in the functional group being closed. - Carries
ControlNumber, echoing the matchingGsSegment.ControlNumberso the group parser can pair GS/GE segments together.
Context¶
- Namespace:
SAIF.Common.Files.Edi.Segments - Assembly/package:
SAIF.Framework.Common.Files
Public members¶
| Member | Signature | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| SegmentId | string SegmentId { get; } |
Returns the literal X12 segment identifier "GE". |
| NumberOfSets | int NumberOfSets { get; set; } |
The number of transaction sets included in the functional group (GE01), element 1. |
| ControlNumber | long ControlNumber { get; set; } |
The group control number matching the paired GsSegment.ControlNumber (GE02), element 2. |
| Build | IEdiSegment Build() |
Creates a SegmentBuilder("GE") and adds NumberOfSets and ControlNumber at elements 1-2, returning the built segment. |
| Fill | void Fill(IEdiSegment segment) |
Reads elements 1-2 via GetChildValue, converting to int/long, into NumberOfSets and ControlNumber. |
| Parse | static GeSegment Parse(IEdiSegment segment) |
Instantiates a new GeSegment, calls Fill(segment) on it, and returns it. |
Behavioral notes¶
- The class carries a code comment noting its field layout resembles the GS segment's positions*.
Note: Statements marked with
