999/CTX - Business Unit
Description

The CTX-Business Unit should be returned when the error in the IK3 loop is within a business unit. There is no definition of "Business Unit" and we are wondering what the definition is. For example, the 270 has a business unit identifier of TRN02, so does that mean the if the error occurs after the TRN segment, it would be considered within the business unit? Using this example, if there is a dependent loop and the TRN segment is in the dependent loop, and a validation error occurs at the provider level, would this CTX be returned?

RFI Response

The definition of a business unit has been added to the 999 Technical Report Type 3 Version 006020X290. The definition is as follows:
A unique unit of work that will trigger or support a business process. With regards to the questions: For example, the 270 has a business unit identifier of TRN02, so does that mean the if the error occurs after the TRN segment, it would be considered within the business unit? Yes, this would be considered within the business unit. Using this example, if there is a dependent loop and the TRN segment is in the dependent loop, and a validation error occurs at the provider level, would this CTX be returned? No, if the error occurs at the provider level, it would not be within the business unit and this CTX segment would not apply.
