Usage Notes
*When exchanging documents, partners typically identify themselves within a document using some well-known ID scheme, such as a D-U-N-S number. If you have a partner's external ID from a business document, use this service to get the internal identifier; that is, the identifier that Trading Networks generated for the partner.
*To retrieve the ID types from the IDType table in the Trading Networks database, use the wm.tn.dictionary:getIDTypes service. The wm.tn.dictionary:getIDTypes service returns a Hashtable of all types of IDs known to Trading Networks. The value of idType must be one of the keys from this Hashtable. For more information, see wm.tn.dictionary:getIDTypes.
*Supply a value for either idTypeDesc or idTypeCode. If you supply values for both of these parameters, the service uses idTypeCode and ignores idTypeDesc.
