I am trying to map an x12 856 and cannot figure out how to work with the HL segments. I have not been able to figure out how to get them to generate correctly. For example, if my desired result is:
HL*1**S
HL*2*1*O
HL*3*2*I
HL*4*2*I
HL*5*2*I
HL*6*1*O
HL*7*6*I
HL*8*6*I
HL*9*6*I

What I end up getting is:
HL*1**S
HL*2*1*O
HL*6*1*O
HL*3*2*I
HL*4*2*I
HL*5*2*I
HL*7*6*I
HL*8*6*I
HL*9*6*I

The way I achieve that result is by copying the LoopHL segment. Can anybody provide some insight into how I might map an XML document to an EDI 856?

when using ANSI as the target, with auto complete enable, it should fill in all the control values.
