Importing Partners

Importing Partners

The EDI Partner Import tool Excel template contains fields for the
B2B Data Exchange
partner, account, profile, and endpoint parameters. Prepare this data in advance so that you can fill in the template correctly.
For more information about the partner, account, profile, and endpoint settings, refer to the
B2B Data Exchange
Operator Guide
.
  1. Update the EDI Partner Import tool Excel input file. Enter the partner, account, profile, and endpoint data.
    Do not use the original template. Use a copy of the template and save the template for future use.
  2. In the PowerCenter Workflow Manager, run the
    wf_ partners_import_tool _all_steps
    workflow.
    The workflow creates partners, accounts, and endpoints in B2B Data Exchange.
  3. To view the status of all the updated parameters, check the Excel file with the status results of the EDI partner import.
    The EDI Partner Import process writes the status results to the file that you specified in the workflow variable
    $$generate_xlsx_result
    . In the Excel each imported artifact, whether a partner, account, inbound profile, outbound profile, receive end point, or send end point object, has a
    load_status
    column indicating if the import process succeeded or failed. The
    load_status_desc
    column contains a description of what was created and troubleshooting information if relevant.
  4. In the
    B2B Data Exchange
    Operation Console, view the imported partners.
