Trading Networks 10.7 | Administering and Monitoring B2B Transactions | Trading Networks Built-In Services Reference | Transport Folder | Overview
 
Overview
Use the transport services (services in the wm.tn.transport folder) to deliver outbound documents using the various transport protocols.
These transport services deliver the document that is an instance of com.wm.app.tn.doc.BizDocEnvelope. A BizDocEnvelope can have multiple content parts, but these services deliver only that content part, which is considered as delivery content for the specified document type. The delivery content differs for different document types. See the respective e-standards documentation to find the delivery content of the corresponding document type. In Trading Networks the built-in document types are XML and Flatfile, and the delivery contents are xmldata and ffdata content parts respectively.
Each service in the wm.tn.transport folder represents an immediate delivery method that you create in Trading Networks, the built-in immediate delivery method, or a scheduled delivery service that Trading Networks provides.
At run-time, the wm.tn.transport services used for immediate delivery methods require additional information (for example, host name and port). To obtain this information, the transport service determines the receiver of the document it is transporting. It then looks up the receiver's profile to find the specific delivery method parameters it should use.
For wm.tn.transport services used for scheduled delivery, the transport service obtains the information it needs at run-time from the pipeline.
