Specify extended information for UDDI business entity

When you register a web service in a UDDI registry, you associate it with a business entity name. In addition to the required name, you can supply additional information about the business including descriptions in multiple languages, contact information with names and descriptions, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses. Using Process Configuration Console, you can manage this information and publish it to an external UDDI registry. Similarly, when you enable a UDDI repository in the isolated region, you can define a business entity and contact information.

To access and manage this extended information about the business, click Advanced on the Publish workflow/Browse UDDI tab, or the Region Business Entity dialog box.

When you are finished entering description and contact information, do one of the following to save the information:

To add a description to the business entity information

  1. You can enter a multi-line description for a business entity. Note that the line breaks will not be preserved when the information is published to the UDDI registry because line breaks are not supported in the standard.
  2. Select a language for the description.
  3. To enter a description in another language, click Add and enter another description. Select the appropriate language.

    The UDDI registry will display the appropriate description in the language specified by the locale of the client computer. Note that some UDDI browser applications display only the default (first) entry; use the Up and Down arrows to specify the order of the description entries.

    NOTE   You can have one description per language.

To enter contact information

  1. If a contact name and type have not already been entered, enter the name of the contact and enter the job title or other short description of the contact.
  2. You can enter additional descriptive text. To enter a longer description, click Edit and enter the text in the Edit Description dialog box.
  3. Select the language for the description. You can optionally enter descriptions of the contact in other languages.
  4. Follow the same steps to enter one or more addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses for the contact.
