  25. TPCx for Non-P21 Distributors • Allowing Non-P21 Distributors (No-Spoke Folks) to use TPCx

  26. Projx#21071: “No-Spoke Folks” • For any type of partner that has no business system for us to communicate with: • Manufacturer, Distributor, Marketplace, etc. • Can be members of TPCx but don’t have to be

  27. Projx#21071: “No-Spoke Folks” • Let’s take a look at how “No-Spoke” partners participate in various TPCx functions… • Pricing Service – Not allowed • Trading Partner Administration • Item Rationalization and Item Maintenance (AMU, Dead Stock, etc) • Relationships • GetPA • EDI

  28. Trading Partner Administration • No MQSeries queues • No “override” queues either • No P21 Customer ID • No System Number • May or may not be “inventory hosted” • Must be inventory hosted to use GetPA

  29. Item Rationalization • Create Request – uploads file rather than querying business system • Normal XML request created from uploaded contents • Flows through system and DCTool normally • Requires customer approval (Review Request) • No response document sent to customer system

  35. Relationships • Can have relationships – can even initiate them • Do not “rationalize” relationships (no vendor/customer codes)

  36. GetPA • “No Spoke” partner must use inventory hosting for their items to appear in GetPA • When GetPA response is generated for hosted item, message gives “freshness” date

  37. EDI • TPCx transmits EDI documents through: • MQSeries • AS/2 • FTP • AS/2 and FTP don’t require a business system to trade • Partners who use a VAN don’t require a business system to trade

  38. EDI • When a “No Spoke” partners doesn’t use a VAN and doesn’t use AS/2 or FTP: • They can receive documents via document tracking (Projx#17510) that came through TPCx hub • They cannot send documents to TPCx hub
