FIX: The Base EDI adapter reads only the first AK2 segment in the 997 functional acknowledgement in BizTalk Server 2004 or in BizTalk Server 2006

Consider the following scenario:

• In Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004 or in Microsoft BizTalk Server 2006, you use the Base EDI adapter to send multiple Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) 810 Invoice documents to an EDI recipient.
• The EDI recipient sends one 997 functional acknowledgement.
• The 997 functional acknowledgement contains responses to the multiple EDI 810 Invoice documents.

In this scenario, the Base EDI adapter reads only the first AK2 segment in the 997 functional acknowledgement. Therefore, only the first EDI 810 Invoice document is updated in the EDI report.

BizTalk Server 2004

To resolve this problem in BizTalk Server 2004, install BizTalk Server 2004 Service Pack 2 (SP2).

BizTalk Server 2006
