Simple Workflow (No Delivery Confirmation)

In this workflow Middleware performs the task of delivering messages to the Backend, but does not notify OFSC of the result.

Simple workflow:

  • OFSC sends a 'send_message' SOAP request to Middleware

  • The Middleware response contains a final message status: 'sent' or 'failed'

  • OFSC will not send any further requests and will not expect any requests regarding this message

  • Middleware guarantees the message delivery to the final recipient

When the Simple workflow is implemented, special focus should be on the performance of the 'send_message' processing. OFSC will not send the next outbound message until it gets the response for the previous message. If Middleware interacts with systems where it has no control over the performance and time delays may appear, this may create a queue of messages on the OFSC side.
