HTTP Trading Partner: Identifier Tab

Trading partners are provided as a convenience. Rather than having to repeat the trading partner's identifier perhaps multiple times in various commands, the identifier can be specified once and the trading partner alias referenced as needed.

The trading partner alias is more human-readable and in the command dialog editor, trading partner aliases are available through pull-down menus.

Note: If the target server interface does not require that a trading partner be identified via a parameter or header value in any of the HTTP commands, then there is no need to create trading partner branches. This is usually the case when the file content itself (like EDIX12) identifies the trading partner (receiver) id.
