Internal Properties in Oracle B2B

For every EDI document Processing in B2B, there is a need to configure the Envelope information by using Document Protocol parameters in B2B. This information is used by XEngine,

1. To create the envelope for the document sent by Back end application. Xengine create the envelope (Interchange and Group) ,embed the Transaction set and send it to Trading partner.

2. To identify the Incoming Document Type and revision, there by identifying the business action for Agreement Identification.


What is Internal Properties

For every XML schema generated per ecs file while modeling the document in B2B Document editor, it defines Internal Properties. Internal Properties are used to

1. Send the Envelope information to the back end application in case of Inbound flow. By default, XEngine strip off the Envelope information and send only the Transaction set to back end appliction.

2. Override the Document Protocol parameter which is defined in B2B, which is used by B2B to create the envelope.

set oracle.tip.adapter.b2b.edi.FAInternalProperties=true

in tip.properties to avail this feature.

B2B Generates FA/Control messages

Consider the case of B2B generating the Acknowledgment, by default B2B always uses Document protocol parameters to generate the envelope for sending FA/Control. By setting the

oracle.tip.adapter.b2b.edi.FAInternalProperties=true in tip.properties

it is possible to make use of the envelope details of the inbound business document while generating the FA/Control.
