The Rules tab in the X12 Project Editor provides the ability to enable or disable semantic validation rules (SNIP Levels 3-5), and provides searchable metadata for each specific rule.
When disabling rules:
- Validation reports generated by the X12 Validator filter using a custom X12 project will not contain errors for any disabled rules.
- When the X12 Validator filter generates a 999 acknowledgment, the acknowledgment will not have respective IK3 and IK4 segments. As expected, this has a flow-on effect to the IK5 and AK9 segments.
