Sending Outbound Messages with EAI MSMQ Transport

With the Siebel application as the sender (outbound messaging), you design a workflow that queries for a record (such as a contact) and then converts that record to an XML document. The XML document is then sent to an MSMQ queue.

Because MSMQ imposes a limit of four megabytes on the size of the messages it can handle, the EAI MSMQ Transport separates outbound Siebel messages larger than four megabytes into smaller messages acceptable to MSMQ. The message is then reassembled after it has left MSMQ and arrived at your partner’s system.

There are two methods for sending messages from a Siebel application to MSMQ:

• Send

• Send and Receive Response (SendReceive)
