ANSI EIA X12 Process

Use the ANSI EIA X12 API process to automatically export ANSI EIA X12 data.

Process Settings

Below are the settings you must define for the ANSI EIA X12 API process:

Setting	Description	Sample Value
ProcessID	This ID informs Cobra to run the ANSI EIA X12 process.	AnsiX12
Project	This setting refers to the project where you want to export ANSI X12 data from. This setting is required.	Demo Advanced
ExportFile	This setting refers to the full path and name of the file where data will be stored. If you omit the path, the file is saved in the Cobra root directory. If you omit the file name, Cobra uses the project name by default.	C:\ProjectFiles\Deltek\Cobra\System\ Demodata\export.csv
AggregatedFTE	If value is set to 1, the man power values are exported as summed FTE values. If value is set to 0, the man power values are exported as Hours values. This setting is optional and the default value is 0.	1
EnforceConsecutivePeriods	If value is set to 1, there must be 6 flagged consecutive periods in the calendar set 19 after the TODATE label to complete the export process. This setting is optional and the default value is 1.	0
ExportExtended	If value is set to 1 and TransactionSet is 3050, extra data is exported to the export file. This setting is optional and the default value is 1.	0
ExportVarianceNarrative	If value is set to 1, variance narrative is included in the export file. This setting is optional and the default value is 1.	0
ExportCSSR	If value is set to 1, data is exported using the CSSR syntax. If value is set to 0, the IPMR data is exported. This setting is optional and the default value is 0.	1
ExportLevel	This setting refers to the level where data is exported. 3: Use this value to export the data at structure level 3. C: Use this value to export the data at the control account level. W: Use this value to export the data at the work package level. You can export data at the work package level only if the actual costs are collected at this level. If the actual costs are not collected at the work package level, an error message is entered in the ANSI EIA X12 log, and the export occurs at the default level. This setting is optional.	W
TransactionSet	This setting refers to the transaction set version by which data is exported. This setting is required.	3050
FilterStructureElements	If value is set to 1, the structure files are filtered to contain entries for the data exported. If value is set to 0, all structure entries are exported, even if the entries do not contain data. This setting is optional and the default value is 1.	0
LongDate	If value is set to 1, dates are exported using the format yyyymmdd instead of yymmdd. This setting is optional and the default value is 0.	1
ManpowerUnits	This setting determines how manpower values are exported. Use one of the following values: H: Use this value to export the man power values as Hours. F: Use this value to export the man power values as FTE. This setting is optional and the default value is H. This setting is not used if the AggregatedFTE setting is 1.	F
OBSProjectOfficerCode	This setting determines which structure code field to use when exporting the OBS project officer value. If this setting is left blank (the default value), the OBS project officer codes are not exported. This setting is optional.	D1
OBSCodeFieldId	This setting determines which control account code file to use when exporting the OBS structure. If this setting is left blank (the default value), the OBS structure defined against the project is used. This setting is optional.	C1
COMIncludeInBody	If value is set to 1, the COM (Sort code C) values are included in the body of the export file. This setting is optional and the default value is 0.	1
COMIncludeInBottomLine	If value is set to 1, the G&A (Sort code G) values are included in the body of the export. This setting is optional and the default value is 0.	1
GAndAIncludeInBody	If value is set to 1, the G&A (Sort code G) values are included in the bottom line of the export file. This setting is optional and the default value is 1.	1
GAndAIncludeInBottomLine	If value is set to 1, the G&A (Sort code G) values are included in the bottom line of the export file. This setting is optional and the default value is 0.	1
OHIncludeInBody	If value is set to 1, the OH (Sort code O) values are included in the body of the export file. This setting is optional and the default value is 1.	0
OHIncludeInBottomLine	If value is set to 1, the OH (Sort code O) values are included in the bottom line of the export file. This setting is optional and the default value is 0.	1
SuppressCAM	If value is set to 1 and there are CAM values defined for the project, the values are not exported. If the WBSProjectOfficerCode setting or the OBSProjectOfficerCode setting is defined, the CAM values are exported even if this setting is 1. This setting is optional and the default value is 1.	0
WBSProjectOfficerCode	This setting determines which structure code field to use when exporting the WBS project officer value. If this setting is left blank (the default value), the WBS project officer codes are not exported. This setting is optional.	D1
WBSCodeFieldId	This setting determines which control account code file to use when exporting the WBS structure. If this setting is left blank (the default value), the WBS structure defined against the project is used. This setting is optional.	C1
