The OpenHeader component, which usually appears in the Open Header Stage of a Commerce Interchange Receive pipeline, reads the XML header tags appended to the data object by the transmit pipeline’s AddHeader component, and writes the XML-mapped business object, the transaction ID, the data and time of the transmission, a message digest, and other optional values to the Transport Dictionary as name/value pairs.
The following table lists the XML values that are written as name/value pairs by the OpenHeader component.
Purpose | XML Tag read | Name/Value written |
