What Is a Trading Partner and Trading Partner Profile?
A trading partner is any person or organization with whom you want to conduct business on your trading network. You define a profile to provide information about a trading partner.
Using the Trading Networks Console, you will need to define profiles for:
Your Corporation. You create a
Trading Networks partner profile known as an
Enterprise profile. You create this profile to identify information about your own corporation.
1SYNC. You create a
Trading Networks partner profile to supply information about 1SYNC.
Representing Party (optional). A representing party is an organization that sends or receives documents on behalf of your corporation. For example, your corporation might have an agent or service provider that represents it. A representing party might also be a child organization, in instances where a parent organization acts on behalf of the child. You create a profile for a representing party the same as you create a profile for your corporation.
