Connect for iSeries: New with Version 1.1
Version 1.1 of Connect for iSeries builds on a solid foundation, extending functional capability
and flexibility. Some of the additions include:
• Support for new trading partner protocols
• Better application integration
• Enhanced flow processing
• Enhanced mapping tools
• Improved catalog management capabilities
• Support for the latest middleware from IBM
• Support for the latest versions of the cXML protocol from Ariba and the mXML protocol
from Metiom.

database connector type that allows you to map elements of incoming B2B messages
to fields in your database tables.
• The iSeries Connect Flow Manager allows multiple back-end applications or database
calls to be made for a single trading partner request. This allows for more complex flow
processing, therefore, greatly enhancing the flexibility of the product.

create application connector documents (ACDs) and multi-step process flow models
(PFMs).

particular buyer organizations and customer specific pricing. Generate catalogs from
multiple database tables.

iSeries provides a set of Delivery Gateway APIs and connectors that enable the
framework to be configured to accept private trading partner protocols.

as advanced shipping notices from back-end applications to buyers and trading
partners.
