Who should read this chapter

WebSphere Partner Gateway now includes EDI processing capabilities (such as de-enveloping and transformation) that are similar to those found in WebSphere Data Interchange. You might be able to use these EDI capabilities in place of WebSphere Data Interchange, in which case you would not need the information in this chapter. Refer to the Hub Configuration Guide for information on setting up the hub to process EDI documents.

This chapter, therefore, is intended for those who:

If you want to use WDI, follow the steps outlined in this chapter. Be aware that the steps for configuring EDI have changed in WebSphere Partner Gateway, version 6.0. You now select a specific document flow for the version of EDI you are using. For example, if you are exchanging EDI-X12 documents, you select ISA (instead of ALL) for Document Flow.
