The message tree

The tree at the left of the screen represents the ISO8583 messages tree. At the bottom of this tree there are the action buttons: Add Message type, Add field and Remove fields. Depending on the selected level of the tree, these buttons may be enabled or disabled. Also, depending on the selected level of the tree, at the right side of the window you will see a different set of properties. Each tree level represents a different thing at the ISO8583 structure:

  • Root: at the root level you can configure the message delimiter, the header size and encoding.
  • 1st level: the first level represents the message types (for instance 0200, 0210, 0202, etc.).
  • 2nd level: the second level represents the fields (the bits) of each message type.
  • 3rd level and on: from the third level on, there are the subfields (it's possible to have as much levels as needed).
