From TN User Guide 8.0 SP1

When you reprocess a document, Trading Networks performs the following:

  • Performs a processing rule lookup to determine the processing rule to use
  • Performs the processing actions identified in the matching processing rule

Note: When reprocessing a saved document, Trading Networks does not perform pre-processing actions—verify, validate, check uniqueness, or save the document.

When you resubmit a document, Trading Networks adds a new instance of the document. The original document remains unchanged. Trading Networks performs the following for the new instance of the document

When you resubmit a document, Trading Networks performs the following processing:

  • Relates the resubmitted document to the original document
  • Uses the TN document type definitions to recognize the document
  • Performs a processing rule lookup to determine the processing rule to use
  • Performs the pre-processing and processing actions identified in the matching processing rule

Hope this helps…

One more point to be noted

From TN Admin Guide:

You might get different or unexpected results when you reprocess a document. Because the attributes are not saved when you reprocess the document, Trading Networks will not match processing rules that use extended criteria. Instead, Trading Networks will match to another processing rule, for example the default processing rule, and perform the process actions identified in that matching rule. Trading Networks does not perform document recognition again and therefore does not re-extract the attributes

For example, if you use extended criteria to select a processing rule when the value of the custom attribute Total Amount is greater than 10000, Trading Networks would not select that processing rule when reprocessing a document because the value of the Total Amount attribute would not be available and therefore would not match the extended criteria.

My 2 cents here

  1. As reprocessing uses the same bizdoc created, the processing logic may fail in case content parts are used with static/fixed names
  2. When you resubmit, it copies only the primary content part (xmldata/EDIdata/ffdata) to the new bizdoc and whatever was done in the gateway service (setting values to extended fields, adding extra content parts etc) will not be done again.

So choose the action carefully.

@Gunsekhar, @Senthil : Good point :slight_smile: Was unable to re-submit flat files. Re-processing was working fine. Your inputs helped to understand the same :slight_smile: I couldn’t find this info on 9x guides though :roll:

Vimal,

What is the error when trying to resubmit for flat files via MWS B2B–>Transactions view?

I believe you can only reprocess FF’s not resubmit as it works differrently then standard XML or EDI submit wise.

There is no error. Just that Doctype, Sender and Receiver comes down as unknown and its gets processed via defaulr processing rule. And Gunasekhar’s explaination makes sense here. All the extended which i was using to mark the same are lost while re-submitting. Reprocessing works though as it uses the same BizDoc :slight_smile:

Yes that is how it works for flat file routing!

Resubmission of flat files also works as long as you code your gateway service correctly. By that I mean that when calling wm.tn.doc.ff:routeFlatFile, you need to pass the name of your gateway service inside a variable named TN_parms/$receiveSvc. This will cause TN to call that service when resubmitting the document.
