Description

The EDITemplateReceiver uses an EDI document as a template and then creates one or more EDI documents by replacing the sensitive data with synthetically generated data at the positions configured in the Receiver.


The LoopCount of the Domain should be the number obtained by multiplying the number of EDI documents required to be generated with the number of rows required to synthetically replace data in 1 EDI document. For example, if 1 EDI document consumes 20 rows of the Domain, and 10 documents need to be created, then the loop count should be 200.
