Displaying/Changing Routing Relations 

Use

You can display or change a routing relation and have the option of specifying routing conditions.

Prerequisites

You have created a new routing relation or opened an existing one.

·        For more information about creating objects, see the Creating a New Object section.

When creating a routing relation, note the following rules:

¡        To be able to create a routing relation, a Business Scenario must be defined in the Integration Directory (see Creating a Business Scenario in the Integration Directory).

¡        Specify the name of the Business Scenario as well as the sender business system and sender interface (name and namespace) for a routing relation. You can use a search help to find this information.

·        For more information about opening objects, see the Object Editors section.

Features

Header

The editor header displays the following fields:

·        Business Scenario

·        Sender business system

·        Sender interface name

·        Sender interface namespace

You cannot enter data in these fields, since the values were defined when the routing relation was created. 

The following information is also displayed:

·        Information about the routing relation status.

·        Description

Here you can enter a short description of the routing relation.

Work Area

Routing Relation

The routing relation is displayed in this area in the form of a table. The possible receivers of the message are specified in the column Receivers and conditions are displayed in the column Condition.

If the assignment of sender business system to receiver business systems is tied to different conditions, then multiple rows are required for representing the routing relation.

The following functions are available to you for editing and managing these tables:

	·        In the column Receivers Calls a search help which enables you to: ¡        Define the type of receiver identification ¡        Select the receiver business systems (See Defining a Receiver.) ·        In the column Condition Calls an editor for entering a condition – depending on the type of receiver identification ¡        Condition Editor – when explicitly entering the receivers ¡        Editor for Specifying the Extractor Parameters – when identifying a receiver from the contents of the message (See Defining a Condition.)

 

Column Receivers

Here you can define the receivers of the message (see Defining Receiver Identification).

Column Condition

Here you can specify optional conditions for forwarding messages to the specified receivers (see Defining a Condition).

Derived Information

In this area, further configuration objects for the receiver business systems are displayed in a table, provided one has been defined.  This table contains the following columns:

·        Column Mapping Relations

If a mapping relation has been defined, then the inbound interface for this (name and namespace) is displayed, as is the interface mapping, provided it has been assigned. If a mapping relation has been defined, then you can double-click one of the table cells to call the editor Display Mapping Relations.

·        Column Logon Data

If logon data had been defined, then you can double-click a cell in this column to call the editor Display Logon Data.

·        Column Endpoints

The endpoint type used in each instance is specified here. If an endpoint has been defined, then you can double-click a cell in this column to call the editor Display Endpoint.

If no other configuration objects are displayed in this table, then you can double-click a table cell to call the dialog box Create New Object.
