The following sections provide instructions for creating, configuring and managing the listener notifications. webMethods Adapter for IBM Power provides one type of listener notification, which is a DataQueue Listener Notification. A listener notification works in conjunction with a listener to process data in webMethods Adapter for IBM Power. When a listener receives data from IBM Power dataqueue, then it passes the data to an enabled listener notification that is associated with the listener.

Ideally, you must configure only one notification per listener. If you configure multiple listener notifications with the same listener, the listener passes the data to the listener notifications created first. You can view and edit the order in which the listener notifications receive the data from the listener. For more information, see Editing Listener Notification Order and Viewing Listener Notification Order. If you have configured multiple notifications with a listener, Software AG recommends that you enable only the notification that needs to be executed.
