126 Vehicle Application Advice (006020)

This is the standard X12 006020 spec, with 2 loops and 7 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.

Loading the spec…
The spec as an OpenAPI 3 schema with x-openedi-* extensions, for ediFabric Native, ediFabric Cloud and the EDI Spec Builder. Download OpenEDI (22 KB) Generate classes
The ediFabric .NET template, class TS126. It needs the common segments, composites and codes of X12 006020, one download for every transaction in the version. Download C# (1 KB) Common files (274 KB)

Use the 126 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 126 files into TS126 objects. See ediFabric .NET.

ediFabric Native

Map version 006020 to the Native model with set_map, then parse 126 files to JSON from Python, Java, C or C#. See Convert between EDI and JSON.

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 126 classes in Python, Java, Node.js, Go, Rust or C

ediFabric Native returns each 126 as JSON, with the property names of the OpenEDI schema. To work with that JSON as typed objects, generate classes from the OpenEDI file in your language and deserialize the JSON into TS126. Serialize the objects back to JSON to build EDI with ediFabric Native. The classes keep the loops, segments, lengths and code lists, but not the EDI data formats, so validate files with ediFabric Native. Read more in Generate a class from OpenEDI.
