Covast Accelerator 2006 seperates the translation from the communications. Therefore it is easy to use aa Covast pipeline component for translation with a native BizTalk adapter. So if you need to use some EDI formats not supported by R2 you can use Covast for the translation but still make use of R2 adapters such as the new AS2 adapter.

Santhosh,

The 204, 214, and 990 and all standard X12 transaction sets and therefore you should be able to use the schemas supplied by R2. If the required communications is AS2, that is also supported by R2 so you should not need to use Covast at all. However, if there aere some other features or functions supported by Covast that are not (yet ?) supported by R2 then it's possible to miz and match Covast & R2.

Therefore, I would recommend checking actual data files to ensure they can be supported by the R2 schemas and listing any other requirements iether partner have, looking specifically for any exceptions.
