Last Used Group 
Control Number

Specify a value that is used to generate the next 
interchange control number. The number generated will 
always be one more than the number in this box. This box 
will initially be set to zero.

Note
To ensure that functional acknowledgements work 
correctly, you must define a unique control number for 
each group relationship that exists for the same partner 
relationship.

Expect 
Acknowledgement

Instruct the system to expect a functional 
acknowledgement to be received from this trading partner 
as a result of your partner receiving the group defined in 
this relationship. The default value for this box is not 
checked (do not expect an acknowledgement).
