Implement B2B Trading Partner scenario using DUNS Number

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a requirement where in we have to send XML to different external Partners. The external Partners are identified based on the DUNS number. Also these external Partners would be sending us the data and depending upon the Partner we have to invoke corresponding service. I need your inputs on how to design this scenario using Party, Business Service and Sender Agency Duns and Receiver Agency Duns.

Thanks

Thanks for your quick response. I agree with you we can use conditional routing. Then what is the use of the DUNS Number Identfiers?

Hey

>>Then what is the use of the DUNS Number Identfiers?

well u need to have some unique identifier based upon which you will send the mesage,now that identifier can be DUNS number,name of company,or anything else(depends upon your company's setup).

if your company identifies its partners by some other identifier then use that identifier in conditional receiver determination.

DUNS number will be used when u configure a party for it.(it need not necessarily be used in conditional receiver determination)

Thanx

Hey

get the partners DUNS number in message payload and then use conditional receiver determination.
