Description

When generating output for an EDI Project, one or all of the following can be referenced within the Output File Name:

• Attribute
• Test Data Case Set Name
• Test Data Category Name
• Test Data Case Name

When a Project or Project Version is created, it will automatically have an EDI Config file, which can be used to configure the Output File Name information. You can modify the EDI Config file from the Configuration Management Tab within the Project Dashboard.

This article will show how to access the Configuration Management Tab and edit the EDI Config file to include these items within the Output File Name for an EDI Project.

• Next, select the Configuration Management tab within the Management Pane.
  
  
  
• Click the Edit (Pencil) icon for the EDI Configuration to reference one or more items.
  
  
  
• Any referenced item must be added before the Constant is defined as ".txt." Click the Delete button for this output file format item.
  
  
  
• Next, click Add to add another line to the Output File Name Format.
  
  
  Note: Remember to add the Constant defined as ".txt" back after adding all referenced items.

• Double click on the text field to select an Attribute to reference.

• Add the Constant ".txt" to the configuration and click the Save button.
  
  
  

Referencing a Test Data Case Set Name

Note: The steps for accessing the configuration and adding an item to the Output File Name Format are identical to referencing an Attribute in the configuration. 

• Select the Test Data Case Set option within the drop-down menu.
  
  
• Add the Constant ".txt" back to the format.
  
  
• Click the Save button.
