Creating and Updating EDI Data Dictionary

When creating EDI Schemas, some record definitions may be common across schemas. You can create and define the record definitions that are commonly used in EDI schemas in an EDI Data Dictionary. Thus, when creating an EDI Schema, you can select the EDI Data Dictionary and display the required records.
