Outbound Message Receiver

The outbound message receiver processes records in the outbound message table that have a processing method flag equal to XAI and a status of pending and changes the status to in progress. The receiver then retrieves the message XSL and the XAI sender defined for the external system / outbound message type.

Note: Template external system. If the outbound message's external system references a template external system, the outbound message type configuration for the template external system is used.

It applies the message XSL (if supplied). If the option to validate outbound message schemas is turned on, the schema validation is performed.

Refer to Outbound Message Error Handling for information about error handling.

If no errors are received, control is turned over to the outbound message sender for routing.

Note: Initialization of receiver. During the initialization of this receiver (for example if there is a problem with MPL and it is restarted) any records that are found to be in progress are changed to pending so that those messages are sent properly.
