EC Server administration overview

Enterprise Collaborator (EC) Server is the engine used at runtime when processing messages. EC Server is monitored and managed in grid through the Application Management Page. If a message fails, access the EC Management Page to investigate the problem, review received files, and examine logs and routing configurations.

Enterprise Collaborator provides message-based collaboration between functions in the Infor M3 enterprise management system and other external applications, in order to enable business process collaboration within and across enterprises.
