Use Case: Partner11 (Sender) send files to SFG via SFTP protocol, we deliver those files to Partner12 (Receiver) using CD protocol from SFG via AMF (Agile Messaging Framework).
Sequence Diagram:
Steps:
A. Onboard Partner11 and Partner12 in SFG using AMF.
B. Onboard Partner11 SFTP profile in SFG using AMF (Customer Initiated Communication Profiles (Inbound)).
C. Onboard Partner12 connect direct node in SFG using AMF (Customer Initiated Communication Profiles (Inbound)).
D. Create Message Types or use the existing one in AMF.
E. Create Message Mapping with Sender, Receiver and Message Type with a file pattern.
F. Create EOL Conversion Action with adding file name format.
G. Create Delivery Action or use the predefined one (Deliver as is).
H. Create Workflow Definition and add Actions (Created in step F and step G) as step1 and step2.
I. Create Workflow Rule with Sender, Receiver, Message Type and Workflow Definition Name (Created in step H).
J. Create MFT Initiated CD profile for outbound delivery in Partner12.
K. Create Communication Rule with Sender, Receiver, Message Type and Comm profile Name.
L. Verify the Message Activity in AMF once Partner11 uploads the file to SFG via SFTP protocol. If everything was configured correctly, the file will be delivered to Partner12 via CD protocol.
