DELFOR Delivery schedule message (D02B)
This is the standard EDIFACT D02B spec, with 30 loops and 74 segment positions, as OpenEDI JSON, an ediFabric C# template and an ediFabric Native model. To change it for a trading partner, customize it in the EDI Spec Builder.
Use the DELFOR spec in your code
ediFabric .NET
Add the C# template and its common files to your project, or reference the template NuGet package, and read DELFOR files into TSDELFOR objects. See ediFabric .NET.
ediFabric Native
Native supports X12 today, and EDIFACT is coming. When it's available, map version D02B to this Native model with set_map to parse DELFOR files to JSON from Python, Java, C or C#. See ediFabric Native.
OpenEDI
Select Customize in Spec Builder to copy the spec under your own name, change it for your partner, and parse files against it in EdiNation, ediFabric Native or ediFabric Cloud. Read about OpenEDI.
Generate DELFOR classes in Python, Java, Node.js, Go, Rust or C
The OpenEDI file describes each DELFOR as JSON. To work with DELFOR data as typed objects, generate classes from the OpenEDI file in your language; the root class is TSDELFOR. The classes keep the loops, segments, lengths and code lists, but not the EDI data formats. Read more in Generate a class from OpenEDI.
Python: datamodel-code-generator. Node.js: openapi-typescript. Java, Go, Rust and C: OpenAPI Generator.
