Author One document, multiple Channels
Harry P.

2004-02-19, 5:36 am


I am trying to distibute information from a single source
document to 4 different destinations, each of these
destinations will get a different document delivered to
them (i.e. we have a different transformation to perform
on the source document for each destination).
At the moment I am intending to tackle this using XLANG
and splitting the flow in to four separate streams each of
which will then output the source document to the relevant
channel for transformation and delivery.
I wondered it there was any way to do this without XLANG?
Essentially can I configure Biztalk in such a manner that
on receipt of a single document, the document can be put
in to 4 separate channels at once without resorting to
XLANG?

many thanks,

Harry P.

Hi,

You can do this.
When you submit a document to BizTalk you can specify in two ways
1.Specify the channel name.
2.Specify the document name and srs orgnization qualifiers/values,
destination organization qualifiers/values.

When you do that, BizTalk first resolves the channel(s) to which the
document to be submitted.

The submission information can select one or more channels.

Then the same message is submitted to all the selected channels.

In your case, if you have 4 different ports and 4 channels from each of the
port, then in the receive function just specify only the document name.
It should be submitted to all of your 4 channels.

Regards,
R.Balaji
