Set up a Trading Partner Agreement

A Trading Partner Agreement (TPA) defines the unique methods by that a specific trading partner agrees to exchange data in a specific transmission type. It also provides links to one or more outbound transmission agreements that might be triggered by the incoming transmission under that TPA.

There are two types of agreement in the Data Exchange Cloud Service:

• Inbound Agreement: Specifies the data received from Trading Partners.

• Outbound Agreement: Specifies the data sent to Trading Partners.
