Interface: TelecomHeader

The fixed-length Transaction Header that opens every NCPDP Telecommunication request. It carries no field separators: each field is positional. Field numbers/designators are from the NCPDP Telecommunication standard vD.0; the names here are our own paraphrases (we do not redistribute NCPDP prose).

Values are trimmed of pad whitespace; numeric leading zeros are preserved (a BIN or PCN is an identifier, not an arithmetic quantity).
