Service | Description |
Initialization | Populates the inputs to the variables in the IS document type with default values. Some webMethods products that take advantage of the TPA feature supply an initialization service. For example, the webMethods Module for EDI supplies the wm.b2b.editn.TPA:initService service, while the webMethods ebXML Module supplies the wm.ip.ebxml.cpa:initTPA initialization service. Note: If you create a partner-defined EDITPA from scratch, do not use the wm.b2b.editn.TPA:initService initialization service because it populates the partner-defined EDITPA with hard-coded values other than those in the default EDITPA, which is already tailored to a user's requirements. Instead, manually complete each parameter field in the Input for wm.b2b.edi.tn.TPA:EDITPA. |
Validation | Validates the data added to the IS document for the TPA. The validation service must adhere to the service specification wm.tn.rec:TPAValidationService. Note: Specifying a validation service improves processing time because it eliminates the need to validate the TPA every time a process that uses the TPA runs on Integration Server. |
Export | Exports a TPA and converts it to an industry-standard format. After creating a TPA, if you need to obtain the industry-standard format of a TPA, you can execute your export service. |
