scope:

Data elements are not necessarily in the same sequence for both variable and fixed formats. Transaction Managment will reformat external formats to a common internal variable format. Exceptions to recognizing and processing variable and fixed formats are listed below. The specific edits and validations done on common fixed and variable format headers are listed in Chapter 2. All transactions that reject from Transaction Management do so under output DIC KRU. See volume 8 for the Input/Output fixed length formats. See volume 9 for the Input/Output variable length formats.
