A core principle of FTM is that the implementation of the business process operates with the Internal
Canonical format (ISF) rather than the external formats. Having identified the message and interface types, it
is easy to identify the mappings that are needed for an FTM implementation. A mapping is needed for each
interface in Identify Message and Interface Types; inbound where FTM is the target system, and
outbound where FTM is the source system.
