Organize Information using the Message Name

Edit online

The message name can be used to communicate information about the message using a suffix, base name, or prefix.

The following are three examples:
  • A purchase order may be sent with a message name suffix that indicates it is a purchase order, such as 9912234.po.
  • A message representing transaction ID 9912234 may have a message name 9912234.po.
  • The order-123456767.request and order-123456767.cancellation might be part of an order process, while invoice-234325677.receipt might be part of an invoice process.
