Changes

=============
PACER-VAL v4

Enhancement:  Updated the graph to include a new file level error message for an 
invalid User Defined Format (UDF) structure, and added an indexing capability 
into the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) acknowledgement file.


===============
PAM-SPR-VAL v6

Enhancement: Updated the graph to include a new file level error message for an 
invalid UDF structure, add an indexing capability into the XML acknowledgement 
file, and suppress additional invalid Standard Line of Accounting (SLOA) service 
errors.


================
PDS-X12-MOD v16

1. Problem:  The 860 X12 MSG01 segments are being populating with more than 264 
characters, which is in conflict with the 860 X12 Implementation Convention (IC).

Solution: When inbound XML tags (multiple places in the PDS schema) contain more
than 264 characters, the PDS-X12-MOD graph will map the first 264 characters to 
the MSG01, then create additional MSG segment(s), where MSG01 data elements 
contain 264 characters or less.

2. Enhancement:  Updated the PDS-X12-MOD graph to support various XML tag 
enumeration values that were added in PDS 2.5.1. 


===============
UID-PDF-GFP v7

1. Enhancement:  Updated handling for characters sets so that the graph uses utf8
character set instead of some fields being set to iso-latin-8859-1.

2. Enhancement:  Added <Results>Pass</Results> to V1 acks to replace <Result/> 
for pass validation files.

3. Enhancement:  Added validations for Date fields not passing MM/DD/YYYY format.

4. Enhancement:  Added validations for Delivery Details section (On Or Before) 
and Event Driven (Duration, Time Unit, and Delivery Event) not provided.

5. Enhancement:  Added validations for Item Name, Item Description, QTY, Unit Of 
Measure, and Use As Is data fields.

6. Enhancement:  Added graph functionality to handle badly formatted PDF/XML 
files more gracefully and not crash the graph.

7. Enhancement:  Updated Reference Procurement Instrument validations to max 30 
versus max 50.
