Sometimes you might need to debug some EDI transactions and the lack of CR/LF can be an issue. I found out that Notepad++ can easly fix this issue:
But that's just the tip of the iceberg! I have developed a bunch of macros that can be used in a wide range of scenarios and that's a small sample: due to some internal procedures, I needed to remove the goods description into BAPLIE file but did not have the chance to edit related mapping rule. Goods description is stored in Segment Group 5 as FTX04:
FTX+AAA+++FAK OR CARGO NOS WITH REFERENCE 998740013'
Applying the following criteria, in conjunction with CR/LF, will purge unwanted information and will change segment as follow:
FTX+AAA+++'
Hope these tricks will be useful to you!
