3052.0. "Parallel Testing with DECEDI 2.1" by GRIND::BFMAHER () Wed Mar 12 1997 21:40

      The testing and implementation of Digital's internal 
  World Wide Sales Out application requires that documents 
  sent to the legacy application need also to be routed to 
  the new system for parallel testing.  Does the DECEDI 2.1C
  Server have the ability to route documents to multiple 
  clients, based upon some information maintained in the 
  partner profile tables ?

  If not, Could you recommend another approach that will
  have similar results ?


  Best Regards,

3052.1One Approach...SCASS1::HARRISONSystems Integration - EDIWed Mar 12 1997 23:5519
    Brian,
    
    DEC/EDI does not support carbon copying of documents (inbound or
    outbound).  This would have to be accomplished external to DEC/EDI. 
    One potential approach could be to fetch the document(s) to create the
    flat file, then resubmit via Application to Application routing to the
    second client the flat file.  By doing this you would by-pass even the
    mapping services.
    
    This would only work if the fetch of an application file is acceptable
    on the second client.  It gets much more complicated if it is not
    acceptable to fetch only the application file.
    
    We have done these sort of things in the past (Dallas EDI Practice). 
    Feel free to contact me if you would like.
