What is Tickstar EDIFACT Webservices?

It’s a free-to-use¹, public webservice that enables transformation from EDIFACT to XML and vice versa. The service is delivered over the internet as a cloud service and can be used by anyone that needs to transform EDIFACT to/from XML without having to invest in locally managed tranformation/conversion tools.

EDIFACT is well spread and supports many Business-to-Business processes, such as the order and invoicing process with trading partners as well as processes for logistics and transportation.

The XML that Tickstar EDIFACT Webservices generate is an ”EDIFACT-ish” XML. The EDIFACTs generated are according to Unece’s specifications.

¹D.96A and D.97A are offered at no cost and without support. Hence, it’s delivered with no guarantees.

Which EDIFACT message types and versions are supported?

Here are the D.93A to D99.B and D.00A to D08.B supported message types and versions. If you need other EDIFACT message types, notify us and we’ll help you promptly.

Can we use the service at no cost?

Yes, as long as you use the schemas and versions¹ offered.

If you require custom transformations – others than the ones supported (se above) – you might consider the cloud service Tickstar Nova or Tickstar Integration Platform.

How do we know that the service really works?

We’ve been doing this for 10 years with satisfied customers.

But what happens if something goes wrong?

We’ve done everything to make this service as secure, reliable and usable as possible. However, please note that we do not guarantee anything in the free version.¹

If you plan to use the webservice in a business critical process or want any of the following; require a certain service level (SLA), want to be able to talk to our support engineers, get necessary expertise help, monitor transactions and be able to Track & Trace in order to hunt down errors (which in most cases are caused by bad data – as you already know) you might consider the add-on services we offer for Tickstar EDIFACT Webservices.

¹D.96A and D.97A message types are available at no cost. Here are the D.93A to D99.B and D.00A to D08.B supported message types and versions.

The webservice is described with this email hidden; JavaScript is required and consists of the following operations:

• GetSupportedServices
• EdifactToXml
• xmlToEdifact

GetSupportedServices

By using this operation you can check if a specific EDIFACT-transformation is available. It has three optional input parameters

• message: message type, i.e APERAK, IFTSTA, IFTMIN or INVOIC
• directory: message version, i.e d96a
• syntaxVerson: EDIFACT syntax version, i.e 3 or 4.

The response to a GetSupportedServices request is a list of all the message types that matched the posted search criterias.

Posting ”message=IFTMIN” will give you a list of all the catalogues supported for that specific message type.

The response will also contain the schemaURL wich is the location of the XML schema.

For a complete list of supported message types and element descriptions, please refer to the UN/CEFACT EDIFACT specifications that can be found here for the versions D.93A to D99.B and D.00A to D08.B.

If you need other message types, notify us and we’ll help you promptly.

This operation has to contain an EdifactHeader element of the same type as in GetSupportedServices. Please note that all fields are mandatory; message, directory and syntaxVersion.

The posted XML message will be transformed with the schema specified in the operation GetSupportedServices.

The response will be the corresponding EDIFACT message in the payload field, encoded with base64.
