System Administrators must create a B2B connection using AS2, SFTP, or SMTP protocols in the Extensible TraceLink Transfer Help Center app. Owners can also update, search and view the details of an exchanged B2B message in the Extensible TraceLink Transfer (XTT). A B2B connection is a configured B2B gateway account associated with a company or location on the TraceLink network to enable file exchange with an external system (e.g. an ERP system owned by a company on the TraceLink network) using the protocol associated with the B2B connection. B2B connections are uniquely identified by a username, and also include the security information (e.g. certificates, public keys) required to establish a connection. After creating a B2B connection the System Administrator can use the new B2B integration menu item in the Opus Administer UI to: - Create an integration principal to enable communication between TraceLink apps. - Create and enable transform set to send and receive different B2B messages. - Associate a B2B connection with a company for outbound messages. - Configure a B2B connection so that B2B messages can be sent inbound or outbound through the B2B gateway. - Configure a B2B message connection type. #### Create and Activate Integration Principals Prior to enabling companies and Partners to exchange B2B messages, System Administrators must create or edit an to enable communication between TraceLink’s apps. The integration principal enables multiple users to send and receive B2B messages from one app to another without needing each individual user to be a member of both the sending and receiving apps. The integration principal does not have login access to the UI. #### Enable Transform Sets System Administrators can create a , which is a collection of maps used to convert data from one format to another (e.g. CSV file to JSON file).. A company can have one or multiple transform sets and each set can have many B2B message types such as purchase orders, invoices, etc. Once a transform set is created, it can be associated with a B2B connection, a company, or an internal location of the company. After a system administrator associates a transform set to a B2B connection, all the messages flowing from the specific B2B connection use this transform set. A company can have multiple B2B connections and use different transform sets for those connections. If a transform set is associated at the company level, all the messages being exchanged use the same transform set regardless of the location. If a transform set is associated at the location level, all the messages being exchanged from that internal location use the same transform set. #### Associate B2B Connections After associating a transform set with the B2B connection, the with a company for inbound or outbound messages. A B2B connection for inbound or outbound messages can be associated with: - An internal location. - An app, which means that all messages received from that app will use this B2B connection. - A B2B message type, which indicates that only a particular B2B message type will use this connection. #### Configure B2B Connections **Configure inbound and outbound identifiers** After creating a B2B connection, System Administrators can configure a B2B connection in Administration so the appropriate Link Identifier, SAP Configuration, and EDI Configuration settings can be used for the app or network. Administrators can configure B2B connections for both and messages. **Configure B2B message connection type** System Administrators can add X12, Electronic Data Interchange for Administration, Commerce, and Transport (EDIFACT), and Intermediate Document (IDoc) to complete adding a B2B connection. #### Impact analysis - Interface options: - UI - Business segment impacts: - All business segments for Owners. ### Enhance user SSO settings #### Manage User Session Timeouts and Password Settings System Administrators can on the Sign-on Settings screen. System Administrators can: - Lock an account after a specific number of failed login attempts, enable or disable lock settings for their company users, and specify the time in minutes after which an account is unlocked if auto lock is enabled (defaults to 5 minutes if the user does not change it). - Set password expiration rules by indicating that a password never expires or by specifying a specific number of minutes after which a password expires for a user. - Set password rules to allow users to reuse all previous passwords or not allow users to set a password to a specific number of previous passwords (defaults to 30 previous passwords before account is locked). #### View Last Login and Password Expiration Rules System Administrators can the Last Login and Password Expiration for a specific user on the All screen. The Last Login date and time captured by TraceLink SSO. This feature also includes updates to tabs on the Networks, Links, and Users menu items.
