  1. A service segment starting and uniquely identifying a message. The message type code for the Party information message is PARTIN. Note: Party information messages conforming to this document must contain the following data in segment UNH, composite S009: Data element 0065 PARTIN 0052 D 0054 13A 0051 UN

    1. Data element S009/0057 is retained for upward compatibility. The use of
    S016 and/or S017 is encouraged in preference.
    2. The combination of the values carried in data elements 0062 and S009 shall
    be used to identify uniquely the message within its group (if used) or if
    not used, within its interchange, for the purpose of acknowledgement.
  2. A segment for unique identification of the Document name and number. The message function code (DE 1225) applies to all transactions indicated in the message. Consequently, one separate message has to be provided per type of function required. The following rules apply: - Addition (DE 1225 = 2). This code is used for providing information about parties for the first time to the trading partner. - Deletion (DE 1225 = 3). This code is used to delete parties from the partner's master file; In case of deletion, only the NAD segments need to be sent in the detail section. - Change (DE 1225 = 4). This code is used to modify any information relevant to parties already known by the trading partner. All the segments relating to the party including the address to be modified need to be sent. - Confirmation (DE 1225 = 6). This code is used when party information is sent again for confirmation.
