Configuring the Inbound Message Format

Before you can receive data from GDSN, you must configure the inbound message format templates. The templates define how data received from GDSN is processed and imported into STEP.

1. In the Tree, locate and expand the relevant data pool entity.
2. Select Data pool format, and then click the Inbound tab.

3. Click the ellipsis button () next to the item you want to edit or click Add Row to add a new configuration.

To configure the inbound message format, complete the following three steps on the Inbound tab.

• Configure How to Extract Data from Incoming GDSN Messages (here)

In the General extraction configuration area, you specify the XPath configurations used to extract data from a GDSN message. The data is used to determine the type of the message and to find the documents in a message.

• Configure How Products are Imported when a CIN Message is Received (here)

In the Import message configuration area, you specify how Catalog Item Notification (CIN) messages are handled and imported into STEP.

• Configure How Responses to Messages are Handled (here)

In the Message response configuration area, you specify how GDSN responses from the GDSN data pool are handled by the GDSN receiver.
