Validating different message types in one file

[Kaiawaia]

Hi,

I have to process edifact input files that contain messages with two different message types (VWAT and VWDT):

UNH+123456789000001+VWAT:01:0:0+111111111'
...VWAT segments...
UNT+3+123456789000001'

and

UNH+123456789000001+VWDT:01:0:0+111111111'
...VWDT segments...
UNT+3+123456789000001'

Now I want to set the transactionSchema in the START_TRANSACTION event. But I need two different schema files. One for VWAT and another one for VWDT. I've tried to get the message type in then START_TRANSACTION event, but without success. I need to set the transactionSchema depending on the message type. How can I accomplish this task?

Thanks and regards
Kai

@Kaiawaia , you can set the transaction schema anytime during the UNH segment. So, your code can retrieve and set the schema when it encounters the element with the transaction code.

Many thanks. That solved my problem.
