ECRTP can be used as a plug-in adapter (called EDIadapter) with these core integration products:
e-Biz 2000
e-Biz Integrator
MQSeries Integrator
To use ECRTP as an adapter, you must perform the following additional actions that are not required when ECRTP is used as a stand-alone product.
Install ARE (Adapter Runtime Environment) from the New Era of Networks EDI Products CD onto the same server that has ECRTP. See the ECRTP Installation Guide for instructions on how to install the ARE.
Export a schema to the core integration product. The schema can be created in ECMap and exported to the other product’s schema repository, or the format of a schema that already exists in the other product’s schema repository can be manually entered in ECMap. The finished schema tells the integration product which adapter to run (in this case, the EDIadapter), provides specific queue-related information, and supplies information required by the EDIadapter. (Refer to the ECMap Reference Guide for a detailed explanation of the utility that creates and exports a schema.)
Create a configuration file. In ECMap, click on the Create Adapter Configuration File button in the Run Inbound Map, Run Outbound Map, or Run Any-to-Any Map Option 2 screens. When this button is clicked, ECMap creates a partial configuration file, which must then be modified based on a variety of factors. The configuration file will either be in Acquire, Deliver, or Process Mode. The type of configuration file depends on the map that is run. After the button is clicked, use Windows Explorer to locate the configuration file, open the file, and modify it.
Example configuration files for the Acquire Mode, the Deliver Mode, and the Process Mode are shown below. Note that the keys and values in the configuration files are case sensitive. For complete details of how to use the EDIadapter, see the Adapter Runtime Environment User Guide.
