Defining Trading Partner Profiles
 
Adding External ID Types for EDI ID Qualifiers
You must set up profiles for all the trading partners with whom you want to exchange documents. Define profiles for:
*Your own corporation if you have not already done so. This is referred to as the Enterprise profile in Trading Networks.
*Your trading partners at the interchange and group level.
Note: When you use non-standard processing, you must create profiles only for partners at the group level. For more information, see Defining Trading Networks Profiles When Using Non-Standard Processing. For more information about the difference between standard and non-standard processing, see webMethods Module for EDI Concepts Guide .
When you define trading partner profiles, you need to specify the external IDs your partners use in their documents. The external IDs correspond to the standard EDI ID qualifiers. Trading Networks does not provide external IDs for all EDI ID qualifiers; however, Module for EDI provides a way for you to add them to Trading Networks. Before creating the profiles, you might want to add additional external ID types to Trading Networks that correspond to the EDI ID qualifiers. For more information, see Adding External ID Types for EDI ID Qualifiers.
For instructions about creating trading partner profiles, see the webMethods Trading Networks Administrator’s Guide for your release.
