2 :: Tell me are there a relation between EDI sending pipeline and Parties?

6 :: Do you know how to change the message type?

Before jumping in to do as the error message suggests, let’s think for a moment about what that entails.

Inspect every Receive and Send shape to determine if it uses a Message variable that’s associated with the schema you want to change.

Its not a good practice to create a single orchestration with so many Receive/Send shapes.

Delete Port connections, once you find all the Receive/Send shapes.

Change the Message variable so that the Message Type property is set to the new schema and then re-associate the Message variable with each Receive/Send shape.

Find all the Port Types that are associated with the Ports you disconnected from Receive/Send shapes and reset their Operation’s Message Type properties.

7 :: Do you know what is EDI?

Electronic data interchange (EDI) is a document standard which when implemented acts as common interface between two or more computer applications in terms of understanding the document transmitted. It is commonly used by big companies for e-commerce purposes, such as sending orders to warehouses or tracking their order.

8 :: Tell me what is the default character set supported by EDI pipeline?

UTF-8 is the default Character set supported and it is used for run-time validation and applies only to EDI X12.

9 :: Tell me is it possible to receive Multiple Interchanges in a Single Message and parse it?

Yes it's possible to receive Multiple interchange in a single message and to parse it, the pipeline property called DetectMID is to be set as True.

10 :: Explain what is content-based routing?

Content-based routing provides flexibility for users who want to route messages based on envelope properties or on receive port configuration properties. Routing can be performed based on information contained in the envelope of the document or even configuration information from the receive location.

A BizTalk Server business process involves receiving, processing, and sending messages. Some messages do not require intensive processing in an orchestration. They can benefit from a simpler and more efficient solution called Content-based routing.
