What Is webMethods Module for EDIINT?
webMethods Module for EDIINT (Module for EDIINT) adds support for the EDIINT exchange protocol. Documents using the EDIINT protocol are processed through Trading Networks. Therefore, if you want to use the EDIINT protocol, you must use Trading Networks.
Module for EDIINT supports EDIINT AS1 (SMTP), EDIINT AS2 (HTTP), and EDIINT AS3 (FTPS) messages, including MDN (receipt) exchange. The module uses the S/MIME version 2 cryptographic format exclusively both to package, encrypt, and provide a digital signature to outbound data, and to unpack, decrypt, and verify the authenticity of inbound data.
You can use EDIINT to transport both EDI and non-EDI formatted (for example, XML or custom format) documents.
*When you use the EDIINT transport for EDI documents, you must also have webMethods Module for EDI installed. Module for EDIINT passes EDI documents to Trading Networks, which in turn allows Module for EDI to process the EDI document using the functions of the Module for EDI packages (WmEDI and WmEDIforTN).
*When you use the EDIINT transport for non-EDI documents, Module for EDIINT passes the documents to Trading Networks, and Trading Networks processes them based on logic you define in Trading Networks.
