    Question

    Is there a parameter to avoid line feeds which are set in EDI outgoing messages?

    Answer

    The line feeds (and carriage returns) can be stripped using the appropriate binary parameter in xxx50/tab/edi_out_attr.

    From the header of xxx50/tab/edi_out_attr:
    ! 2 EDI-OUT-FTP-MODE
    ! A (default) = ASCII mode will be used for sending the outgoing messages. The
    ! EDI file will include many lines, one line for each segment.
    ! B = Binary mode will be used for sending the outgoing messages. The EDI
    ! file will include one long line.
