Install, Configuring and Deploying
Integrate WebSphere Commerce and SSFS involves three relatively complex tasks, performed using WebSphere Commerce, WESB Mediation Module, and SSFS.
A high level list of tasks to complete to perform correct integration functionality is:
- Configure WebSphere Commerce to use an external OMS.
- Modify the WESB mediation module so that the data is translated correctly between WebSphere Commerce and SSFS.
- Deploy the WESB mediation module.
- Configure SSFS to respond to JMS API requests.
- Configure SSFS to send order status updates to WebSphere Commerce.
- Synchronize data between WebSphere Commerce and SSFS.
Install, Configuring and Deploying: WebSphere Commerce
To use SSFS as an external OMS, configuration changes must be performed to WebSphere Commerce to accommodate the integration.- Install, Configuring and Deploying: WESB Mediation Module
The method of integration between WebSphere Commerce and Sterling Selling and Fulfillment Suite is a WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus (WESB) mediation module. This module requires WebSphere Integration Developer (WID) 7.0.0.3 and WESB 7.0.0.3. To extend or modify the Mediation Module, import the project into a WID workspace. - Install, Configuring and Deploying: SSFS
SSFS is a flexible and powerful system. Due to this, each installation is likely configured differently. This task includes common configurations made to SSFS to function with the mediation module.
