How Module for EDIINT Relates to Other webMethods Components
When you install Module for EDIINT, the WmEDIINT package is installed into Integration Server. The following diagram illustrates how the module fits into the webMethods product suite architecture.
* Integration Server is the underlying foundation.
* Trading Networks is a webMethods component that enables your enterprise to link with other companies (buyers, suppliers, strategic partners) and marketplaces to form a business-to-business trading network. To use Module for EDIINT, Trading Networks is required. For more information about Trading Networks, see the Trading Networks documentation for your release.
* Module for EDI comprises the following two packages:
* The WmEDI package, which contains the basic functionality that provides support for the EDI standard.
* The WmEDIforTN package, which allows the WmEDI package and Trading Networks to interact. This interaction allows you to use Trading Networks as a gateway for EDI document exchange. Module for EDI uses the functionality of Trading Networks to provide additional features, such as support for VANs, reconciling FAs, and batching the sending of EDI documents.
