Adding a New Business Agreement

After both trading partners are configured, you can now configure their business agreement:
  1. On the Partner Management tile, click Business Agreements.
  2. On the Business Agreements page, click Create Agreement, which is in the upper-right corner of the page.

    Create New Business Agreement page is displayed.

    Verify that the plug-in is displayed in the Protocols column for both trading partners between which you want to configure a business agreement. If it is missing, return back to Configuring Services Plug-in for a Partner and enable it.

  3. Select a host from the Host field.
  4. Select a partner from the Partner field.
  5. Click Proceed.
  6. Confirm that the Active toggle is enabled in Validity tab. It makes the agreement valid immediately.
    Note: Active toggle is enabled by default.

    If you want to make the agreement valid for a certain time period, do the following:

    — Use the Agreement Start on field to specify the start date of agreement.

    — Use the Agreement Ends on field to specify the end date of agreement. This date has to be later than the start date.
