Editing an Ongoing Delivery Suspension Schedule
Canceling an Ongoing Delivery Suspension Schedule
At times you might want to suspend delivery for a partner (for example, when a partner’s system is unavailable). The table below describes Trading Networks actions based on the type of delivery.
Type of delivery
Trading Networks actions when delivery is suspended
Immediate delivery method that uses reliable delivery
Delivery tasks for the partner are assigned HELD status and Trading Networks does not try to deliver documents. When delivery is resumed for the partner, Trading Networks changes the status to PENDING and resumes trying to deliver documents.
Immediate delivery method that does not use reliable delivery
Delivering documents fails. Because Trading Networks does not save the document to the database, it cannot hold the delivery.
Scheduled delivery method that uses reliable delivery
Delivery tasks for the partner are assigned HELD status and Trading Networks does not try to deliver documents. When delivery is resumed for the partner, Trading Networks changes the status to QUEUED and resumes trying to deliver documents.
Scheduled delivery method that does not use reliable delivery
Delivering documents fails. Because Trading Networks does not save the document to the database, it cannot hold the delivery.
Delivery tasks are also affected when deliveries are suspended. When delivery is suspended for a partner, Trading Networks assigns the delivery tasks HELD status and does not try to execute the services. When delivery is resumed, Trading Networks updates the task statuses to PENDING and resumes trying to execute the services.
To suspend or resume delivery for a partner

2. Click the Delivery Settings tab.
3. You can do either of the following:
*Suspend the delivery immediately. For this, select the Suspend Delivery check box in the Settings panel. To resume delivery, clear the check box.
