To populate a B2B host with attribute definitions

• For custom BPADs, DPADs, or TADs: Open the project or subproject and drag the attributes definition into the Attribute Definitions window. Repeat as needed for other custom attribute definitions.

• For presupplied attribute definitions: In the project explorer tree, open the SeeBeyond⇒eXchange folder, and do the following as appropriate:

  • For X12: Open the Protocol Managers⇒ X12 Manager⇒OTDs folder and drag the X12 BPAD into the B2B Host Designer window.

  • For HIPAA: Open the Protocol Managers⇒HIPAA Manager⇒OTDs folder and drag the HIPAA BPAD into the B2B Host Designer window.

  • For standard transports: Open the Transport Attribute Definitions folder and drag one or more TADs into the B2B Host Designer window.
