Monitoring Transactions

An end-to-end business-to-business document exchange corresponds to a transaction in IBM® webMethods B2B. Irrespective of the type of documents, channels used, a transaction is a neutral runtime aspect of a business-to-business document exchange flow.

You can search, view, and monitor transactions using the simple search capabilities.

Monitoring enables you to:

• Track transaction information about the documents that your IBM webMethods B2B has sent, received, or delivered.

• Track transactions created as part of an integration where one transaction may generate many transactions for its end-to-end completion and subsequently monitor them in the Course of transaction section of the Transaction summary page.

• Search for a specific transaction.

• Resubmit and reprocess a transaction.

• Edit and resubmit the content of a document.

• Add a comment to a transaction.

• View the attributes for a document.

• View all related transactions in a single group.

• Download a precise list of live transactions by applying search filters.

IBM webMethods B2B provides better availability support for the product and infrastructure. This allows having multiple replicas for paid tenants. This capability ensures a new processing node is assigned as soon as the current processing node fails. Note that this is only a high availability support and not failover support. This means that the transactions in-flight may fail and those may need to be resubmitted or reprocessed. Any new transactions will be successfully processed on the newly assigned node.
