Electronic data interchange for administration, commerce and transport (EDIFACT) — Application level syntax rules (Syntax version number: 4, Syntax release number: 1) — Part 8: Associated data in EDI

This part of ISO 9735 specifies syntax rules for associated data in EDI to be interchanged between computer application systems. This provides a method to transfer data which cannot be carried by means of either a batch or interactive EDIFACT message. The data may be created by other applications (such as STEP, CAD, etc.), and is referred to in this part as associated data.
