B2B Add-on SP2: Process synchronous MDN messages

[Dimitri]

In a previous blog, I already mentioned a new feature on the AS2 adapter: support for creating new XI messages for received synchronous MDN messages. This was also stated in a small poll.

This feature was missing, but a lot of people wanted to have it. Now, in SP2, it is available and very easy to configure.

For that reason, I created a small blog to highlight the configuration and the result.

Overview

In a previous SP, the highlighted feature below was not available

Configuration

Within the receiver AS2 communication channel, make sure to indicate synchronous MDN messages and a reference to a sender AS2 communication channel, getting the incoming MDN message

Create a sender AS2 communication channel that corresponds to the one used in the receiver AS2 communication channel, configured in the previous step.

Result

Use http://testas2.mendelson-e-c.com:8080/webas2/ to look into message content on the Mendelson side.

For the SAP PO monitoring, this is the result(*)
