You can use the following transformations to initiate and complete reconciliations in PowerCenter:
DX_Initiate_Correlation. Initiates a reconciliation for an event. When you create the workflow to process a document that requires reconciliation, use this transformation to initiate the reconciliation.
DX_Complete_Correlation. Completes the reconciliation for an event. In the workflow to process the acknowledgment document, use this transformation to complete the reconciliation. This transformation requires the correlation ID defined by the workflow that initiates the reconciliation.
The B2B Data Exchange API also provides methods to initiate and complete a reconciliation. In the workflow to process a document that requires an acknowledgment, call the initiateCorrelation method to initiate a reconciliation. In the workflow to process the acknowledgment document, call the completeCorrelation method to complete the reconciliation.
You must set a time limit within which the acknowledgment must be received. The Data Exchange Server sets the reconciliation status to indicate whether the acknowledgment was processed within the time limit.
You can create a reconciliation monitor for the Data Exchange Server to set the status and to notify you when a reconciliation does not complete or completes after the time limit. For more information, see
