ISA – Interchange Control Header  

The ISA is a fixed record length segment and all positions within each of the data elements must be filled. The first element separator defines the  element separator to be used through the entire interchange. The segment terminator used after the ISA defines the segment terminator to be used throughout the entire interchange.This results in the segment terminator always being in position 106.

Sample:  

ISA*00*          *00*          *ZZ*8431           *ZZ*ZIRMED         *130215*1234*^*00501*000000001*1*P*:~

Important Note on the above sample:
ISA02
Since ISA is fixed length segment, even though if no values are present, we need to fill up empty spaces. Here ISA02 is filled with 10 empty spaces.

ISA04
Since ISA is fixed length segment, even though if no values are present, we need to fill up empty spaces. Here ISA04 is filled with 10 empty spaces.

ISA06
Since ISA is fixed length segment, if the value is not 15 characters length, then we need to append empty space to make 15 characters string.

ISA08
Since ISA is fixed length segment, if the value is not 15 characters length, then we need to append empty space to make 15 characters string.

User Name and Password
In some clearing house, they might ask to send the user name and password along with each EDI file. Thats what Authorization information Information refer ISA01, ISA02,ISA03 and ISA04.  After you sign up with the clearing house, ask your user name and password to send along the EDI File if they need.  In such case, ISA01 will have the value"03" , ISA02 will have the user id, ISA03 will have the value "01" and ISA04 will have the actual password. Very important, since ISA is fixed length segment, and ISA02 is 10 character, so if your user id is less than 10 characters, then you need to append empty spaces to make it as 10 character word.
