Envelope objects overview
Use envelopes to create a text file where system and editable values are defined by start and end separators. An example of a created text file is XML. Users can create any message envelope using the text file as a template. The user-defined message envelopes that you can apply to outbound messages in IEC are managed in Partner Admin Tool.
You can retrieve user-defined manifest items and use them in an envelope. User-defined manifest items must contain prefixes such as map, agr, or daf.
System values
System values are set by IEC at run time. For example, the system value
%+THE_PAYLOAD+%
is replaced by the message’s payload created by the IEC
mapping. The %+THE_PAYLOAD+%
is automatically replaced at runtime by the
message payload.
Editable values
Editable values are set in the message’s Agreement. In the envelope template, you can use
the format %EDITABLE:MyProperty%
wherein MyProperty is a
parameter that must be updated when using the envelope in the Edit Process dialog box.
