In production, how will data file errors be handled?
The EDD Gateway will return a transmission acknowledgement (ACK1) for each transmission received. All returns within each transmission will then be validated and an acknowledgement (ACK2) will be created for each return for retrieval at a later time. If the ACK2 states that there is an error(s) in the return, the return must be corrected and retransmitted to EDD. If the transmission has returns with errors, only the erroneous returns should be resubmitted with the corrections. If there are no errors in the return(s), the ACK2 will contain a confirmation number for the return.
