Inbound Custom Files with Intelligent Structure Discovery

You can use Intelligent Structure Discovery to receive incoming Excel, TXT, and CSV files from customers. Intelligent Structure Discovery writes the files to an interface file on the B2B Gateway document store.
In addition, use custom Data Integration mappings, which you create, to handle the following stages of the file exchanges between the organization and its partners:
Custom mappings for inbound custom files with Intelligent Structure Discovery
You can use a process-to-backend mapping to read the files from the document store and write the data to the backend system. The source of the process-to-backend mapping is the interface file on B2B Gateway, and the target is the backend system.
Custom mappings for outbound custom files
Use a process-from-backend mapping to read outgoing data from the backend system and write the data to an interface file on the B2B Gateway document store.
You can use an additional, outbound mapping to read the data from the gateway and send it to the partner. The source of the outbound mapping is the interface file on B2B Gateway, and the target is the target location for the partner that you send the data to.
