B2B Integration

To allow business-to-business transactions to take place over the Internet, Siebel Financial Services eAI provides HTTP adapter and the Business Integration Manager, which are used to model and execute business processes. In case the organization supports IFX XML or ACORD XML standards for B2B integration, Siebel provides connectors that work with the HTTP adapter. Furthermore, organizations may implement the Siebel Industry XML Connector Factory APIs for building customized XML connectors. Table 29 details the requirements and the solution for a successful B2B integration.
