RosettaNet Viewer

Use the RosettaNet Viewer to locate a specific process that generated an event. When you identify the target process, you can view process details and the raw document.

RosettaNet is a group of companies that created an industry standard for e-business transactions. Participant Interface Processes (PIPs) define business processes between members of the hub community. Each PIP identifies a specific business document and how it is processed between the Community Manager and participants.

The RosettaNet Viewer displays the choreography of documents that make up a business process. Values that are viewable using the RosettaNet Viewer include process state, details, raw documents, and associated process events.

The RosettaNet Viewer displays processes based on specific search criteria.
