Creating XSD and MAP files

To generate XSD and MAP files, complete the following steps:

  1. Start EDISIM Application Manager. Select Start > All Programs > TIBCO_HOME > EDISIM in Windows. The EDISIM Application Manager window opens.
  2. Create a guideline. Click Creating Or Editing A Guideline from the left-hand panel and then click Creating A New Guideline.

  3. Click the Standards Editor link on the right panel. The Empty Guideline - EDISIM window opens.
  4. Create a new standard. For example, create a new standard based on the HL7_26 guideline.
    1. Select File > New from the Empty Guideline - Edisim window. The New Guideline - Select Guideline dialog box opens.
    2. Click the User Guideline tab and select the guideline. In this example, we have selected the HL7_26 item.

    3. Click Next. The New Guideline - Select Transaction Sets dialog box opens.
    4. Select messages you want to include in your new guideline. For example, the ACK_A01 and ACK_A05 messages.
    5. Click Open.

  5. Edit the newly created guideline based on your requirements. For example, add Z segments, remove unused segments, or adjust optionality of fields in the guideline.
  6. Save the guideline. Select File > Save in the menu. The Save Guideline As dialog box opens. Type a guideline name in the Name field and then click Save.
  7. Export the guideline as a schema.
    1. Select File > Export > Export Current Guideline > To Schema from the menu. The Export Standard dialog box opens.
      Note: To enable the Export Current Guide function, you must save the guideline first.

    2. Select a path to save the guideline.
    3. In the Schema/Map Format panel, select the Custom radio button and then select Full Enveloping (BC=No, BW=Yes), Human Readable Element IDs (BC=No, BW=No, BW HL7=Yes), and Include Segment Tags checkboxes.

      Uncheck Strict Schema (BC=Yes, BW=Yes, BW HL7=No)
