In IBM webMethods Integration, if the payload fails to reach the recipient when you resend the payload after a specific period (approximately 10 minutes), delete the existing account and create a new one. For more information, see AS2 Connector.

Usage Notes

The following functionalities have certain restrictions in IBM webMethods B2B system:

• Partner certificate automatically gets associated with the new partner created with the same details as the deleted one. Also, the certificate is not listed on the certificate monitoring page.

• To use 2-Way SSL/TLS functionality, business documents must be sent to a channel URL with the port 8443 appended to the hostname. The 2-Way SSL/TLS functionality is an additional level of validation and security. This along with the partner-user credential-based authentication ensures that business documents are exchanged securely.

• While synchronizing partner profiles as part of partner onboarding, IBM webMethods B2B ignores all new partner profiles, and retains only the pre-existing profiles. Additionally, a message about the duplicate occurrence is logged in the Activity logs under the General category.

• If you are not able to map multiple documents to a document array based on indexing in a Flow service, create a document array that holds all the required documents using the “insertDocument” operation of the “Document” service.
  For example, if you want to map three documents (D1, D2, and D3) to a document array (DA1[]), add the “insertDocument” operation thrice: once for each document, and insert D1, D2, and D3 into the “documents” array. You can also use loops to run the “insertDocument” operation thrice. Finally, map the “documents[]” array, which holds all the three documents, to DA1[].

• Publishing of assets from one environment (the origin) to another environment (the target) with inherited users is not supported.

• IBM recommends that you do not create, update, or delete any B2B assets during the upgrade window. For information on major releases, hotfixes, and patch releases including the latest statistics on the availability of cloud environments, incident history, and planned maintenance events, see Service Status page.

• Cloud products are available in several geographical regions, and operated by different infrastructure providers. For information on the underlying infrastructure provider in each region and the available products, see Regions. See IP addresses for the cloud products.
