System business processes
There are several business processes delivered with Sterling File Gateway to perform basic tasks.
Do not alter the system business processes. Sterling File Gateway business processes run in queues 3, 4, and 6. Do not change the queue settings of the system business processes because they are configured to optimize queue usage under heavy loads. Custom business processes (used for consumer identification or layer processing) should be configured to execute on any queue except 3 or 4.
In Sterling B2B Integrator, a business process is a series of linked software and possibly human activities that accomplishes a business goal. The activities in a business process are primarily performed by components known as services and adapters, and are orchestrated by Sterling B2B Integrator integration engine.
The integration engine runs business processes according to the instructions that comprise your business process models. Technically, a business process model is defined by a single, unique BPML document, a .BPML file. BPML is an XML-based language used to describe (model) and run business processes.
