Type with attribute [Message(X12, 005010I20, 837)] was not found in assembly

I need to create 837 files to do Workers' Comp state reporting to the state of California.  In order to validate what we need to do, the state sent me a test file.  I'm looking at purchasing ediFabric so that this job can be made easier.  However, when I try to load the file in with the test projects, I get an error.

 

The first two lines of the test file are below.  The file won't parse/deserialize and the error given is  "Type with attribute'[Message(X12, 005010I20, 837)]' was not found in assembly 'EdiFabric.Examples.X12.Templates.V5010.NoValidation, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'."

 

The test file included with the sample projects seems to be of type "005010X222" while mine is "005010I20".  Is there a template or test project for this format?  I'm sorry if these are dumb questions, I don't know much about it and this is a little daunting.  I was hoping I could just pay my money to the ediFabric gods and miss out on some of the unpleasantness ;-).  Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,

    Your assumption is correct and the reason for the error message is that there is no template for "005010I20".

    The message being 837 (P or I ?) can still be parsed if you use type factory:

    var ediReader = new X12Reader(ediStream, TypeFactory) 

    private static TypeInfo TypeFactory(ISA isa, GS gs, ST st) 
    { 
        if(st.TransactionSetIdentifierCode_01 == "837") 
            return typeof(TS837P).GetTypeInfo(); 

        throw new Exception("Transaction not supported."); 
    }

    005010I20 is a proprietary version and the implementation guideline for it can be purchased from IAIABC (link here). It will contain the correct codes/customizations of the standard 837 template. Contact us here to discuss how we can help you with this.
