Transaction Set Control Number
Description: Identifying control number that must be unique within the transaction set functional group assigned by the originator for a transaction set
The transaction set control numbers in ST02 and SE02 must be identical. This unique number also aids in error resolution research. For example, start with the number 0001 and increment from there. This number must be unique within a specific group and interchange, but the number can repeat in other groups and interchanges.
