Configuring the RNIF Adapter using Templates 

Use

You can also configure the RNIF Adapter using templates that are delivered as a part of the business package.

Prerequisites

You have created a party and service in the Integration Directory.

Procedure

       1.      Create a new communication channel

       2.      In the Edit Communication Channel screen, go to menu Communication ChannelàImport Template.

       3.      Select the template and import it.

The template is imported from the Integration Repository. This contains all the PIP-specific information that was created during the template creation.

       4.      Enter the other information like Transport Parameters, Authentication, Location, and Message Exchange Controls.

       5.      Save the Communication Channel.

The RNIF Adapter is now configured using the provided template for the specific PIP.

The PIP details in the template are created and shipped together with the business package. The standards related fields should not be changed when imported into the Integration Directory.

Naming Convention

The name of the channel template is derived as follows. The type would be buyer or seller. This is appended with the role. The role can be receive or send. And finally this is appended with the name of the message interface.

In other words, the template name is <PartnerRole>”_”<direction>”_”<Action>_11

where <direction> is "Send" or "Receive" and <PartnerRole>, <Action> are associated to the standards.

Example

For PIP3A4 with partner as Initiator the templates name is listed below:

●      Buyer_Send_PurchaseOrderRequest_11

●      Buyer_Receive_PurchaseOrderConfirmation_11
