The Redix AnyToAny Format Converter Engine meets the format conversion needs of all enterprises. As opposed to traditional software engines that employ a three-step approach, the Redix AnyToAny Format Converter Engine combines data validation, translation and conversion, and database access into a single process to eliminate unnecessary file I/O. The Redix ONE-PASS approach is significantly faster than other approaches and allows for the exchange of messages in seconds and milliseconds, rather than in minutes and hours as with competing solutions. The Redix AnyToAny Format Converter Engine is ideal for real-time XML/EDI and Electronic-Commerce applications.

Written in C/C++, Redix AnyToAny Format Converter Engine runs on Windows 2000/XP/Server 2003/Vista/7/Server 2008/Server 2008 R2/Server 2012/10/Server 2016, Linux, and various versions of the UNIX operating system, including Sun Solaris, HP-UX, and AIX. It supports both 32- and 64-bit software.

The software engine converts data between:

• X12 and its clones, including versions 3040, 4010, 4020, 4030, 5010, 5020, 5030, 5040, and 5050
• UN/EDIFACT and its clones, including versions 94A, 94B, 95A, 95B, 96A, 96B, 97A, 97B, 98A, 98B, 99A, 99B, and 00B.

The following diagram shows the outbound data flow for an enterprise using the Redix AnyToAny Format Converter Engine.

For instance, an enterprise may have two applications. One application may produce an XML file, while the other application may take X12 files as input. With the Redix AnyToAny Format Converter Engine, the enterprise can convert an XML file from the first application into an X12 file that is used by the second application.

Add-on Modules

Redix modules are optional add-ons to the Redix AnyToAny Format Converter Engine that add additional functionality. Multiple modules may be added onto a single engine, and the modules do not have to be installed during the initial engine installation.

Depending on the enterprise’s needs, the enterprise can purchase separate module licenses in addition to the AnyToAny Format Converter Engine. For example, if the enterprise needs to convert NCPDP files to any other format, then the enterprise should purchase a separate NCPDP Module license. Similarly, if the enterprise wishes to convert XML files to any other format, then the enterprise should purchase an XML Module license. The following is a list of possible modules that can be added onto the AnyToAny Format Converter Engine.

With Redix GUI Mapper and EDI Authoring Tools

If an enterprise wishes to use a GUI (graphical user interface) to create and maintain message-type definitions and maps, it can purchase a Redix GUI Mapper with EDI Authoring Tools license.
