Creating a Mapping Service for New Templates

If you make changes to any of the partner onboarding templates, you need to edit the mapping service. If you create a new partner onboarding template, you need to create a new mapping service. If the administrator approves the template that you edited or created, the edited or new mapping service pushes the approved information to the profile/TPA.

Note:
If you create a new mapping service, you need to enter the mapping service name in the Mapping Service box on the Manage Templates page.

To create mapping fields for the edited or new templates

1. In IBM webMethods Designer, create a new flow service. Ensure that the structure of the pipeline input (Pipeline In) to the mapping service is as follows: Template > Group Name > Field Name.

Note:Template is a fixed variable name, whereas Group Name and Field Name should reflect the values you defined in the template.

2. Add groups and fields to Pipeline In in the flow service.

3. Map the Pipeline In fields to the Pipeline Out fields. There are three Pipeline Out groups, each having a list of fields:

Profile. For details, see the description for the wm.tn.rec:Profile service in IBM webMethods Trading Networks Built-In Services Reference.

EDIINT. For details, see the section on the Extended Fields tab of the profile in IBM webMethods Module for EDI Installation and User’s Guide.

EDITPA. For details, see the section on defining EDI trading partner agreements in IBM webMethods Module for EDI Installation and User’s Guide.
