Industry XML Dispatcher
The Industry XML Dispatcher is responsible for receiving and dispatching inbound messages. It receives the message and determines the specific XML standards associated with the message. It also scans the message for commands that are supported and specified in its rule sets dispatcher map and associates each command with the corresponding integration objects and so on. Table 19 lists all the user properties for the Industry XML Dispatcher.
