This chapter describes the different document protocols supported by Oracle B2B such as EDI EDIFACT, EDI X12, HL7, RosettaNet, and so on.
Oracle B2B document protocols, which define the document type of the message payload are shown in Figure 8-1.
You can define nearly any protocol by using the Custom protocol and the many guideline documents in Oracle B2B Document Editor.
This chapter contains the following topics:
For related information, see the following:
Oracle B2B supports custom document protocols to create documents needed for proprietary transactions. With XML messages, you have the advantage of schema enforcement (XSDs).
With non-XML messages, you can create trading partner agreements for specific message types.
When creating a Custom document, you specify rules to identify the incoming document. For XML documents, specify an XPath expression and a value, which is the expected result of the expression.
For non-XML documents such as a flat file, you can specify start and end positions or a document routing ID.
No parameters need to be set when you create the document version for a Custom document.
When you create a Custom document type, you can set ebXML messaging service (ebMS) parameters to identify the ebXML document. Figure 8-2 shows the document type parameters for a Custom document.
Figure 8-2 Document Type Parameters for a Custom Document
Table 8-1 describes the document type parameters for a Custom document.
Table 8-1 Document Type Parameters for a Custom Document
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
ebMS Tab |
- |
Action name |
The action name for the ebXML header, which is also an identification criteria for inbound and outbound messages. ebMS documents require an action name to avoid runtime errors. |
Service name |
The service name for the ebXML header, which is also an identification criteria for inbound messages. ebMS documents require a service name to avoid runtime errors. |
Service type |
The service type for the ebXML header, which is also an identification criteria for inbound messages. ebMS documents require a service type to avoid runtime errors. |
From Role |
The trading partner that sends the message. A value provided here overrides the Identifiers values supplied on the Profile tab. |
To Role |
The trading partner that receives the message. A value provided here overrides the Identifiers values supplied on the Profile tab. |
Vaildate ebMS Header |
When selected, validates inbound ebMS header from role, to role. |
CPA File |

XML Tab |
(Available if XML is selected from Identification Type) |
Identification Expression (XPath) |
Locates a node in the XML payload |
Identification Value |
Provides the value to match in the node identified by the Identification Expression. If the values match, then the document is successfully identified. If the value is left blank, then Oracle B2B checks for the existence of the node and the document is successfully identified. |
DTD/XSD NamespaceConversion |
Select from None, Both, Inbound, or Outbound. |
Routing Tab |
- |
Document Routing ID |
Sets the consumer name to the back-end application |
XPath Tab |

Identification End Position |
Used in combination with the start position to retrieve a value from the payload between the start and end positions |
Identification Value |
A value between the start and end positions |
Apps Tab |
- |
Document |
The name of the internal application document. |
Action |
A sub-classification within the document. |
XSLTFile |
The name of the XSLT file. |
Note:
When using EDI documents which have default namespace, the usage of
//*[local-name()='...']
can be used, but the more common usage
//Segment-TH/Field-101-A1/text()
cannot be used.
The XPath expression identifies a Custom XML document. You configure the XPath expression when you specify the document type parameters.
The options when configuring an XPath expression are as follows:
Assume that the transaction ID is 12345. Set the parameters as follows:
Field | Value |
---|---|
Identification Value |
12345 |
Identification Expression |
//*[local-name() = 'TransactionID']/text() |
Oracle B2B compares the value of Identification Expression in the payload to the value specified in Identification Value. If the values match, then the document is identified successfully and the corresponding document type and document protocol version are used to identify the agreement. Example 8-1 shows an excerpt of the XML payload for this option.
Example 8-1 Specify the XPath and the Matching Value
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

Assume that you are checking for the existence of a node called registerCommand
. Set the parameters as follows:
Field | Value |
---|---|
Identification Value |
Leave blank. |
Identification Expression |
/*[local-name()='envelope']/body/transaction/command/*[local-name()='registerCommand'] |
When the Identification Value field is left blank, Oracle B2B checks for the node identified in Identification Expression. If a node in the payload matches, then the document is identified successfully. Example 8-2 shows an excerpt of the XML payload for this option.
Example 8-2 Check for the Existence of a Node

Assume that the value of the country attribute is US. Set the parameters as follows:
Field | Value |
---|---|
Identification Value |
US |
Identification Expression |
//*/@country |
Oracle B2B compares the value of the country attribute to the value set for Identification Value. If the values match, then the document is identified successfully. Example 8-3 shows an excerpt of the XML payload for this option.
Example 8-3 Check the Value of an Attribute

An EDI-X12 document that is received from a trading partner can be acknowledged in the following ways:
By sending 997, which is Functional acknowledgment
By sending 999, which is Implementation acknowledgment
Even though the usage of the both document are similar, the 997 acknowledgment can be used to verify the syntactical correctness of the document. On the other hand, the 999 acknowledgment indicates the relational analysis of the control structure as well.
In the case of 997 generation for X12 version 5010 and higher, the following additional elements (optional) are generated:
<Element-480>005010</Element-480> <Element-1705>Implementation Convention Reference</Element-1705>
In addition, Oracle B2B also validates the 997/999 acknowledgments during the translation to native against the default preseeded 997/999 definition. So while implementing the solutions using Oracle B2B, it is a suggested practice to use 999 for the version 5010 or above.
When you need to override the Envelope parameters using internal properties, you need to specify the overriding values as a part of <Lookup>
as well as the <Property>
tag.
For example:
<Internal-Properties> <Data-Structure Name="Interchange"> <Lookup Name="InterchangeReceiverID">GlobalOverride </Lookup> <Property Name="InterchangeReceiverID">GlobalOverride </Property> ... </Data-Structure> </Internal-Properties>
Oracle B2B implements the Health Level 7 (HL7) version 2.x and version 3 standards (version 3 supports Custom document protocols) to exchange documents containing health care information using the Generic exchange or MLLP exchange. When using HL7, the standard Oracle B2B features, such as validation, translation, automatic generation of outbound envelope headers, and acknowledgments, are available.
Note:
While HL7 BATCH and FILE envelopes are supported, batching is not supported in this release.
For information about the organization that created and maintains the HL7 standards, go to
http://www.hl7.org
When you create an HL7 document version, you can set various parameters. Figure 8-11 shows document version parameters for an HL7 document.

Message Header Tab |
- |
Security |
In some applications of HL7, this field is used to implement security features. |
Processing ID |
MSH.11 - This field is used to decide whether to process the message as defined in HL7 Application (level 7) processing rules. The first component defines whether the message is part of a production, training, or debugging system (refer to HL7 table 0103 - Processing ID for valid values). The second component defines whether the message is part of an archival process or an initial load (refer to HL7 table 0207 - Processing mode for valid values). This allows different priorities to be given to different processing modes. |
Accept acknowledgment Type |
Sets the conditions under which application acknowledgments are required to be returned in response to the message. The value AL (always) is supplied. B2B checks the payload (MSH.15) of an incoming message to see if an ACK has to be generated. In some HL7 Systems, MSH.15 is not sent in the payload at all and it is expected that an ACK is still sent. |
Application Acknowledgment Type |
MSH.16. The value AL (always) is supplied. |

About Using HL7
No business message is produced for an HL7 immediate acknowledgment (transport-level acknowledgment). When using AS2, you see one acknowledgment business message for MDN (transport-level acknowledgment), and for ebMS, you see one acknowledgment business message in the business message report. In summary, because immediate acknowledgments are sent at the transport level, the entry is available only in the wire message report and not in the business message report.
Negative acknowledgment messages indicating errors in an HL7 exchange may be truncated because of the 80-character length limitation in HL7 versions 2.1 through 2.5.
Oracle B2B implements Open Applications Group (OAG) standards, a robust XML standard used across many industries. This standard defines messages as business object documents (BODs).
For information about the organization that created and maintains the OAG standards, go to

Oracle B2B supports message exchange for positional flat files, for example, NCPDP Telecom documents and SAP iDocs (intermediate documents (text files) used with SAP applications). This adds capabilities beyond handling XML files and traditional EDI files based on various XML and EDI standards.
Note:
Positional flat files must be manually upgraded from 10g to 11g.
Note:
Oracle B2B supports NCPDP documents that are used in the Insurance industry. The two widely used NCPDP documents are:
Post Adjudication History File: used for large detailed records
Post Adjudication Utilization File: used for small utilization records
Oracle B2B implements NCPDP documents through positional flat files.
No parameters need to be set when you create the document version for a positional flat file.
No parameters need to be set when you create the document type for a positional flat file.

Oracle B2B implements the nonproprietary, XML-based RosettaNet standards to exchange documents over the Internet. RosettaNet standards prescribe when information should be exchanged, acknowledged, or confirmed, and how messages in an exchange should be packaged and physically exchanged between trading partners. In addition to using the RosettaNet document guideline files in Oracle B2B Document Editor, you can also download standard DTD files from the RosettaNet Web site.
A RosettaNet DTD, when used with Oracle B2B in a SOA composite application, must be converted to an XSD. An AQ Adapter added to the composite application can convert the inbound DTD to an XSD and manipulate the data as needed. Likewise, the AQ Adapter can convert the outbound XSD to a DTD for Oracle B2B to send the message out.
RosettaNet standards are specified by using of the RosettaNet Partner Interface Process (PIP), RosettaNet Dictionaries, and RNIF. Oracle B2B supports all PIPs. (The RosettaNet Technical Dictionary is not supported in Oracle B2B.)
For information about the RosettaNet consortium and its history, and for a complete list of PIP clusters and segments, go to
http://www.rosettanet.org
A PIP is an XML-based dialog that defines the business processes between trading partners. It defines the structure, sequence of steps, roles (buyer and seller) activities, data elements, values, and value types for each business document message exchanged between trading partners.
Using PIP 3A4 as an example, you can see how a PIP defines a dialog between trading partners, as shown in Figure 8-17.
Figure 8-17 PIP 3A4 Message Exchange Between Buyer and Seller
A PIP sequence combines a cluster, segment, and type. The PIP sequence 3A4, for example, encodes the information shown in Table 8-17.

LocationID
Configuring partnerDefinedPIPPayloadBindingID
You can configure the partnerDefinedPIPPayloadBindingID parameter by using the Service Header section under DocumentType in the Oracle B2B console.
Configuring locationID
To configure Rosettanet sender and receiver LocationID using the Oracle B2B console:
Create a Trading Partner Identification Type with the value RN Location ID
.
Note:
The value is case-sensitive.
Use the RN Location ID
Identifier Type to create Trading Partner Identifiers for both the host and remote trading partners.
Include these new Trading Partner Identifiers of the host and remote trading partners into the Agreement (in addition to usual DUNS Identifier.)
Deploy the agreement.
RosettaNet validation compares the elements in RosettaNet XML-format business documents to the requirements specified in the RosettaNet Message Guideline specification to determine their validity. This specification defines requirements for details such as element datatypes, element lengths, element value lists, and element cardinality. PIPs that require RosettaNet dictionary validation are also validated when a dictionary is present.The minimum validation-level requirements on the sections of a RosettaNet XML-format business document are as follows. These requirements cover the preamble, delivery header, service header, and service content sections of a document. Documents not following one or more of these requirements are identified as invalid.
The XML-format business document requires compliance with its DTD.
Elements with datatypes, lengths, or both that are specified in the RosettaNet Message Guideline specification require validation against this specification.
An element's list of values specified in the entity instance list in the corresponding RosettaNet Message Guideline specification requires validation against this specification.
If the Message Guideline specification defines the cardinality specification of an element differently from the corresponding DTD specification, the Message Guideline specification takes precedence.
If a PIP requires dictionary validation, and a dictionary is included, the service content requires validation against the dictionary as a part of action performance.
Cross-tag validation is based on message guidelines.

The 1Sync document protocol helps in the data synchronization between seller and buyer, which enables the transfer of product and location information with the continuous synchronization of the data over time.
Use the Custom document protocol or the UCCNet document protocol to create a 1Sync XML document.
Note:
The GS-1 organization has changed the standard name from UCCNet to 1Sync. Use either the seeded UCCNet document protocol or create a new Custom document protocol, 1Sync, as illustrated in the figure. The functionality is the same.
Figure 8-21 shows a document definition for a 1Sync document, using the Custom document protocol.
You can correlate 1Sync request and response messages as follows:
Use the document routing ID on the Routing tab. The routing ID 1Sync_64_catalogueRequest is shown Figure 8-22.
Figure 8-22 The Routing Tab for a 1Sync Document Definition
Use correlation parameters on the Correlation tab. The following parameters and values are shown in Figure 8-23.
Correlation From XPath Name: From_catalogueRequest_messageId
Correlation From XPath Expression: /*[local-name()='envelope']/*[local-name()='header']/*[local-name()='messageId']
This value matches the correlationFrom value in the payload.
Figure 8-23 The Correlation Tab for a 1Sync Document Definition
See the following for more information:
Section 1.7, "Oracle B2B Samples and Cookbooks." A 1Sync example is provided with the B2B samples.
Document details—document protocol versions and document type parameters—can be changed for a remote trading partner from the Partners > Documents tab. Host administrators can change any remote trading partner's document details here (host administrators must change their own data on the Administration > Document tab), and remote administrators can change document details for their own data, if the remote administrator has been granted access to those document types. See Section 1.4.2, "Restricting Access to Document Types," for more information.
Figure 8-24 shows the Version tab in the Document Details section, where parameters for the document protocol version can be changed.
Delimiters, and parameters such as Interchange Control Version Number, Interchange Date, and Interchange Time are typically changed for different remote trading partners.
Figure 8-25 shows the Document Type tab, where parameters for the document type can be changed.
Use the Override Version Param and Override DocType Param parameters to indicate that override values are provided. Document type parameter values set for a remote trading partner take precedence over the default document type parameter values set for the document definition when the document was created on the Administration > Document tab.
To override document details:
Click the Partners tab.
Click the Documents tab.
Select a remote trading partner.
Select a document definition.
Select the override types that apply:
Override Version Param
Override DocType Param
Provide values to override values on the Version tabs or the Document Type tabs, or both.
Click Save.
Changes to a document definition after an agreement is deployed are not reflected in the trading partner's profile. Use the Document Details area on the Partners > Documents tab to change document protocol version and document type parameters. Then redeploy the agreement.
If you import B2B metadata and then change the document from the Administration > Document tab, then you must also make the same changes to the supported document definition for the host and remote trading partners from the Partners > Documents tab. Use the Version, Document Type, and Definitions tabs under Document Details to make the changes.
A document routing ID is useful in two circumstances: when enqueuing to an AQ queue and when using B2B documents in a SOA composite application. If you set a document routing ID for messages enqueued to an AQ queue (inbound only), then the AQ consumer name is set to the document routing ID. Within a SOA composite application, if you use a document routing ID in your B2B binding component instead of the document definition, then all messages with the same document routing ID are routed to the same SOA composite.
This is useful if you have many different document definitions, but you want them to be handled the same way. The WSDL uses the document routing ID instead of the document definitions. In a SOA composite application, the B2B Configuration Wizard provides an option to use the document routing ID instead of selecting a document definition, as shown in Figure 8-26.
Figure 8-26 Document Routing ID Option in Oracle JDeveloper
When using AQ, if you set the routing ID value instead of using the default b2buser, then do not set it to a numeric value. Use a combination of alphabetic and numeric values.
