A Special Register (SREG) is a variable that users can set. As a best practice within the EDI framework, you can use SREGs to define input and output locations. When an iWay Integration Application (iIA) containing EDI channels is migrated between systems (for example, from Dev to UAT), the only changes required to deploy the iIA in the new system is to set the SREG and start the iIA. EDI channels use multiple locations and paths. This practice minimizes the migration effort. For a list of SREGs that are provided with iSM, see the iWay Service Manager Programmer's Guide. For more information on defining an SREG of your own, see the iWay Service Manager User's Guide.
The sample outbound TRADACOMS channel sets all of the SREGs that are listed in the following table.
Name |
Value |
---|---|
Input |
sreg(TRAD_OUTPUT) |
Output |
sreg(TRAD_OUTPUT) |
Archive |
sreg(TRAD_OUTPUT)/OB_Archive |
ValidationReport |
sreg(TRAD_OUTPUT)/OB_Report |
Error |
sreg(TRAD_OUTPUT)/OB_Error |
The selected SREG set opens as a new tab, as shown in the following image.
