📚 EDIFACT Format Overview
-------------------------

[](#-edifact-format-overview)

- A file is composed of multiple **segments**—each begins with a **tag** (e.g., `UNH`, `NAD`).
- Each segment contains structured data relevant to that tag.
- A **message** typically starts with a `UNH` segment and ends with a `UNT` segment.
- A **transaction** is a list of such messages within a file.

👉 Read more about segments [here](/docu/segments/README.md)
