edi.edifact-generate

Generate an outbound UN/EDIFACT document from JSON — the international counterpart to edi.generate (X12). POST type ('ORDERS' = purchase order or 'INVOIC' = invoice) + senderId, recipientId (with optional qualifiers), documentNumber, optional date (CCYYMMDD), parties (NAD role+name, e.g. BY buyer / SU supplier / IV invoicee), items (quantity, productId, price), and for INVOIC an optional total. Returns the full EDIFACT interchange in meta.edi — a correct UNA/UNB/UNH…UNT/UNZ envelope with BGM, DTM, NAD, LIN/QTY/PRI, MOA/CNT — with proper delimiters and release-character escaping. Deterministic, no external calls. Round-trips through edi.edifact.
