Tool to update and add Rate Factors

At one of client implementation, users had a large number of updates to rate factors every week and have a large number of rate factor sources

Here’s a a simple way to update rate factors.   Comment in this post if you need a copy of this ..

Sender System Name in OTM Outbound transmissions

 

When OTM sends any outbound communication, it includes the Source System URL. Sometimes this is long and clumsy depending on the installation. (Network and Internal DNS)

In order to change the URL and add a Logical System ID (Like ABC_OTMPROD) , make below changes in glog.properties (custom Section)

 

!remove glog.integration.senderSystemId = $glog.webserver.URL$

glog.integration.senderSystemId=ABC_OTMPROD

OTM External System Communication using Proxy

Some times there are external systems that can be reached by proxy only. Here’s how you can set the Proxy for http communication in glog.properties

 

 

You can also set proxy for ftp comunication using below parameters

glog.integration.ftp.proxyHost

glog.integration.ftp.proxyPort

Posting XML to OTM Servlet

 

In OTM, you can import a XML file to test your transaction templates by manually uploading them in Integration Manager. This process would not essentially simulate the way transactions are sent to OTM through Middleware. You can also use this to load test by sending large number of transmissions to OTM  (using Bulk Load from Folder)

You can use below tool to post a transmission to OTM servlet to simulate external system. 

 

Use URL as-

http://yourhost:port/GC3/glog.integration.servlet.WMServlet

 

Select required XML File. Make sure you set USERNAME and PASSWORD nodes as required..
