Creating a Document-handling Package

Creating a unit to handle inbound documents is a straightforward process. Follow these steps:

  1. Create a SmartB2BObject—the SmartRouter cannot communicate with a SmartReceiver—to transform the object. See the "SmartB2BObjects" section for details. Save the object.
  2. Create a data handler—a SmartDataObject or SmartBusinessObject—to process the transformed document. See the Progress ADM 2 Guide for information about the SmartDataObject, or the "SmartBusinessObject" section for details about that object. Save the object.
  3. Choose File New and select the Simple SmartContainer. A workspace of that type appears:
  4. Place and configure the transformer and data handler objects that you created. No advisor will appear to offer to create SmartLinks between these objects: they do not communicate using the SmartLink mechanism.
  5. Save your work. Repeat this process until you have created a handler for each incoming document type.
