Integration

Hi,

I am trying to configure XML Gateway to send a custom XML message outbound to a web service, and I just wanted to see if I am on the right track. Any help/comments/suggestions are greatly appreciated.

I have created a business event in Workflow Administrator and created a subscriber to that event.

In XML Gateway, I have created a custom transaction type, a hub with a URL to the web service, and a trading partner.

I understand that there is a map that I need to create for any custom XML messages using Message Designer. I have created a DTD and a map file. The source and target DTDs are the same, so I have mapped only the highest level node below the root element in my map file.

I am thinking of doing the following. I will raise the business event in a PL/SQL procedure. I would like to pass the XML as the event data parameter to the business event call.

Would this approach work? Or is a custom workflow required?

Thanks,
Kitty
