First, are you using the EDI converter, or the Custom XML Converter?
You should be using the latter.
To see the results, do File|Open, choose the EDI file, check the box
that asks if you 'Open using XML Converter', and choose the EDI option.
Since your input file also uses at least one non-standard codelist item,
(or one from a different version), set the 'Force error if item not in
codelist' to 'no'.

Since there are more than two, I assume you mean the pairs. So, which
of the two in each pair do you want to remove? The one with the
'Quantity on hand' or the one with the 'Committed quantity'? Also, do
you care at all about the INV segments associated with either?

If you use the built-in EDI converter instead of manually building one
using Custom XML Converters, all these will be named for you
automatically.
