MOVEit Transfer can accept and store AS2 messages and asynchronous AS2 MDNs that will be processed later (and often immediately) by MOVEit Automation. MOVEit Transfer, rather than MOVEit Automation, is used in the role of an AS2 server because MOVEit Transfer already serves the function of a secure, Internet-exposed HTTP(S) server and MOVEit Automation already has an interface to MOVEit Transfer.
No additional license is required to accept and store AS2 messages and asynchronous AS2 MDNs on MOVEit Transfer because this feature is only useful when a separate AS1, AS2 and AS3 license has been purchased for MOVEit Automation.
AS2 messages and asynchronous AS2 MDNs are uploaded and downloaded through HTTP(S) but are not part of the normal MOVEit Transfer file system. All AS2 messages and AS2 MDNs are located in special /AS/[partner-name] folders, created as needed (where [partner-name] is your partner's official trading name.) For example, if your partner John Smith sends you an AS2 message, it will be found in the /AS2/John Smith folder.
MOVEit Transfer administrators can view and delete AS2 message files through their usual web interface.
