To add a source distinction to an XML transaction map:When you create your transaction maps, you can associate each map to a source, such as a portal or marketplace, or to a general specification, such as xCBL or cXML. You might have more than one trading partner that trades through a portal or marketplace or more than one trading partner that uses the same XML specifications. Assign a transaction source and use that source to filter what displays in Remote Archive Maintenance. For example, if you have three trading partners that are using a source, such as iProcure, you can filter the remote archive to display only transactions that are sent through that source, and the system displays transactions from all three trading partners that were sent through the same source.
To add a source distinction to an XML transaction map:
Access the Business Connect XML mapping utility and select the trading partner for which you want to define a transaction.
In the Transaction Source field, click the down arrow to select the portal or marketplace used for the transaction.
The Selection dialog box displays.
Do one of the following:
Select an existing source name – Select a name in the list to add it to the Transaction Source field in the New Transaction Map dialog box.
Create a new source name – Click Create New and enter the new source name. Click OK to add it to the Transaction Source field in the New Transaction Map dialog box. The name is also added to the selection list for future transactions.
To edit a transaction source:
Right-click the transaction in the Trading Partner Tree that you want to rename and select Edit Transaction Map to display the transaction map.
From the Edit menu, select Edit Transaction Source to display the Mapping Source dialog box.
Enter or select a new source and click OK.
The system updates the transaction source for the transaction map.
