Solution For EDI data to be accurately parsed, all separator characters must be unique. For X12 interchanges, the separator characters also must not be used in the data elements. There is no way to identify a separator character as being part of the data if it is used within a data element value. For EDIFACT interchanges, you can define a unique release character that can be used to precede and “deactivate” a separator character so it can be included in the data portion of an element.
