Inbound and Outbound Documents

TI distinguishes between inbound and outbound data to make it easier for you to find your own company’s data.

Example: Transmissions page

Example: Documents page

Inbound and Outbound are from the point of view of the TI host:

Inbound       Data sent to the TI host’s organization.

Outbound     Data sent from the TI host’s organization.

It is not dependent on sender and receiver IDs and is not determined by reading ISA or GS values.

The host designates data as inbound or outbound by where it puts data awaiting importing into TI. When TI reads data from the inbound directory, it flags it as inbound. When it reads data from the outbound directory, it flags it as outbound.
