1.1.4 Transaction Document Processing with LANSA Composer
LANSA Composer's transport, transformation and process orchestration features provide an infinitely flexible and adaptable framework that can be used to solve almost any type of business process integration challenge.
However, many typical business process integration requirements follow a similar and familiar pattern involving the exchange of transaction documents, usually in standard forms such as XML or EDI, with known Trading Partners and transformations between those transaction document formats and an internal application database.
Because this pattern is so typical, LANSA Composer provides a ready-made framework solution that you can easily adapt and extend to encompass the exchanges and document types that are specific to your organization. As a part of this framework solution, LANSA Composer provides a transaction document registration database and the LANSA Composer Document Manager application that can be used to monitor and manage your inbound and outbound document flows.
LANSA Composer's transaction document processing framework and the LANSA Composer Document Manager can support virtually any type of transaction document exchange. However, particular support is provided for EDI X12 and EDIFACT transaction document formats.
