3795518 - Integration Center: Review and Run Page Shows Higher Field Count Than Configure Fields Tab Due to Header Row Cells Being Counted

When creating or editing a EDI Stacked outbound integration in Integration Center, the number of fields displayed on the Review and Run page is significantly higher than the number of columns visible on the Configure Fields tab.

For example:

• The Configure Fields tab shows 60 columns
• The Review and Run page reports 180 fields

The expectation in both views is to show the same number, and seems like the fields beyond column 60 are missing or not rendering in the UI.

The discrepancy is caused by how the Review and Run page counts output field entries versus how the Configure Fields tab displays them.

When an integration is built with EDI Stacked, the integration stores multiple rows:

• Header rows: Each header line contains one entry per column (e.g., field identifiers, descriptive labels)
• Content row: Contains one entry per column representing the actual data extraction logic

The Configure Fields tab correctly displays only the number of columns (e.g., 60), showing all rows stacked vertically within the same column grid.

The Review and Run page counts the total number of individual cell definitions across all rows. With 3 rows of 60 columns each, the total becomes 60 x 3 = 180.

This represents individual cells, not distinct columns.

This is working as designed. No corrective action is required.

The field count shown on the Review and Run page represents the total number of output field cell definitions across all configured rows (headers + data content), not the number of distinct columns.

To confirm the actual column count of the integration:

1. Open the integration in Integration Center
2. Navigate to the Configure Fields tab
3. Count the columns displayed in the grid view (the numbered column headers at the top of the page)

This number represents the true number of columns in the output CSV file.

The formula for the Review and Run field count is:

Total fields on Review and Run = Number of columns x Number of configured rows (header lines + content)

For example:

• 60 columns with 2 header lines + 1 content row = 60 x 3 = 180
• 60 columns with 1 header line + 1 content row = 60 x 2 = 118
• 60 columns with no header lines + 1 content row = 60 x 1 = 60
