Procedure documentationDefine Integration Process as Communication Component Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

You can select an integration process from the Enterprise Services Repository and define it as a communication component in the Integration Directory.

Procedure

  1. Decide how you want to address the integration process.

    You have the following options:

    • Address as a communication component independently of a party

      Communication components without a party are typically used when configuring company-internal business processes (application-to-application processes).

    • Address as communication component of a party

      Parties (with assigned communication components) are typically used when configuring cross-company business processes (business-to-business processes).
