Components in EDI Products 5.1 have specific requirements. These component-specific requirements are described in detail in “Additional requirements,” in Chapter 1, “Before You Begin” in the EDI Products 5.1 Installation Guide.
The Sybase EDI Products 5.1 product set consists of powerful components that meet the needs of any organization processing EDI:
ECMAP™ – a mapping tool for developing maps to validate or process EDI transactions.
ECMAP Network Client – client for the optional network installation of ECMAP.
ECMAP Debugger – an add-on product to ECMAP that enables developers to debug their maps by controlling the execution of maps, on a command-by-command basis, and monitor the data values of variables and record fields as the map runs.
EC Gateway™ – an EDI message management component for scripting, scheduling, data communications, and operations management.
EC Gateway Operations Viewer – used to monitor the operations of EC Gateway.
ECRTP™ – is both a data transformation engine that analyzes, transforms, and routes messages, and a compliance-verification engine that checks EDI data against the corresponding EDI standard.
ECRTP/TP – a customized version of ECRTP for OEMs that also provides for trading partner administration.
Sybase also distributes the Sybase EDI Server 5.1 product bundle which consists of:
ECMAP
EC Gateway
EC Gateway Operations Viewer
ECRTP
For information on selecting license types for the components within the EDI Server bundle, see “Selecting license types for EDI Server components”.
Sybase EDI Products version 5.0 and later uses Sybase Software Asset Management (SySAM) for license administration and asset management tasks.
SySAM-enabled components in EDI Products 5.0 and later use SySAM to perform runtime verification of licenses every time you start the product. If the required license is not available, the product does not run. This differs from the license verification in earlier versions, which was performed only during installation. See the EDI Products 5.1 Installation Guide for more information.
Most SySAM-enabled products work for an initial grace period without a license. If you do not install a valid license for your configuration within the installation grace period, the product ceases to function.
EDI Products for UNIX platforms does not currently support installation grace periods.
ECMAP Debugger does not support installation grace periods. To evaluate ECMAP Debugger, you can obtain a formal Trial License. Call 1-800-8-SYBASE.
