See the Administer Help Centerfor information about how to configure the B2B connections created in XTT AWS:

  • Create integration principals – Prior to enabling companies and Partners to exchange B2B messages, System Administrators must create or edit an integration principal to enable communication between TraceLink’s apps.

  • Create transform sets – System Administrators can create and enable a transform set which is a collection of transforms that can be used to send or receive different B2B messages. A transform is a map used to convert data from one format to another (e.g. CSV file to JSON file). A company can have one or multiple transform sets and each set can have many B2B message type collections such as purchase orders, invoices, etc.

  • Associate B2B connections – A B2B connection must be associated with a company for inbound or outbound messages. A B2B connection for outbound messages can be associated with a company which includes a company, an internal location, an app, or a B2B message to enable two parties to send messages for an existing B2B connection.

  • Configure B2B connections – System administrators can create and view B2B connections, which is a configured B2B gateway account that is uniquely identified by a B2B connection name using Applicability Statement 2 (AS2) protocols , Secure File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) and Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) in the XTT app. After creating a B2B connection, System Administrators can configure a B2B connection in the Administration app so the appropriate Link Identifier, SAP Configuration, and EDI Configuration settings can be used for the app or network. System Administrators can add X12, EDIFACT, or IDoc location settings information to complete adding a B2B connection. System Administrators must configure an inbound or outbound message prior to adding the connection type information.
