Creating the Target Definition

Creating the Target Definition

In the PowerCenter Designer, create the target and add ports to store properties for running the workflow. You can also add properties to store other
B2B Data Exchange
values that you want to send back from PowerCenter.
The target definition process includes the following steps:
  1. Create the target object.
  2. Add ports to the target object. Add the port information as properties in the JMS Message Property Columns tab of the target definition. By default, the port properties have the prefix
    Prop_
    .
The following table describes the
B2B Data Exchange
target properties:
Property
Description
DXDataByReference
Required. Determines whether the JMS message that PowerCenter sends back to
B2B Data Exchange
contains a document reference.
Possible values:
  • True. The JMS message contains a reference to a document that is stored in the
    B2B Data Exchange
    document store.
  • False. The JMS message contains the actual document data.
DXEventId
Identifier of the event to use in the next workflow. If you do not set the value of this property, the
B2B Data Exchange
server generates a new event ID for the next workflow.
DXParentEventId
Identifier of the parent event to use in the next workflow. Set the value of this property if you want to send the JMS message to multiple targets with a child event for each target. The
B2B Data Exchange
then generates a new event ID for the next workflow to use for the child events.
If you do not set the value of this property and send the message to multiple targets, all targets inherit the parent event status and you cannot track the status of each child event.
DXStatusName
Name of the event status to assign to the event in
B2B Data Exchange
after a successful processing.
endpointName
Name of the endpoint to which to route the message after processing.
profileId
Identifier of the profile to which to route the message after processing.
profileName
Name of the profile to which to route the message after processing.
accountName
Name of the account to which to route the message after processing.
partnerName
Name of the partner to which to route the message after processing.
sendToAccount
Determines whether to send the message to a global endpoint or to an endpoint that is associated with an account or a partner.
Possible values:
  • True. Sends the message to an endpoint that is associated with an account or a partner. If you set this value, you must set a value for the
    accountName
    or
    partnerName
    properties.
  • False. Sends the message to a global endpoint.
