An AS2 destination is a reference to an AS2 host that defines a single ruleset for sending a file as an EDI data message to a partner and requesting an MDN to confirm receipt of the file.
Partner credentials, encryption method and other partnership-level details are configured at the Host level. For more information, see see AS1, AS2 and AS3 - Hosts - AS2.
For asynchronous HTTP(S) MDN requests, you must have an incoming MOVEit Transfer host already defined.
For asynchronous email MDN requests, you must have an AS1 host already defined.
AS2 Destination Options:
Use Original File Name(s) - If checked, the file is sent with the name under which it was saved on the source. If not checked, the file is sent with name defined in the Filename field. This name can contain Macros.
Request MDN - If checked, MOVEit Automation requests an MDN from the destination partner to verify that the data arrived, and does not consider the task complete until it has received one.
Send all source files in a single ASx message – If checked, instead of an individual ASx message for each of the source files, this destination sends a single ASx message with multiple attachments.
Request Signed MDN - If checked, MOVEit Automation requests that the MDN sent by the destination partner is signed by the partner's SSL certificate, to verify the origin of the MDN message.
Use Partner Encryption Certificate for Signature Validation - If checked, MOVEit Automation uses the Partner Certificate configured in the referenced AS1 host to validate the signature on the MDN received from the partner.
If not checked, a different SSL certificate can be configured for signature validation in the Validation Certificate field.
Request Asynchronous MDN - If checked, MOVEit Automation requests that the MDN be sent after the file transfer connection has been closed, instead of at the end of the file transfer before the connection closes. An asynchronous MDN can be sent either to an HTTP server, or by email.
If not checked, a synchronous MDN will be requested.
Request Email MDN - When this option is checked, MOVEit Automation will request that the MDN be sent via email to the email address indicated by the MDN Email Address field.
MDN URL - The URL to which HTTP MDNs are sent by the destination partner. This field is available only if the Request Asynchronous MDN and Request Email MDN checkboxes are not checked.
For synchronous MDN requests, this value (while required by the AS2 specification) is typically ignored because the MDN is sent in response to the file transfer via the same connection.
For asynchronous HTTP(S) MDN requests, this value is necessary to tell the destination partner where to send the MDN.
Default is the [AS2ReceiverURL] macro, which represents a properly formatted URL based on the linked MOVEit Transfer host of the referenced AS2 host. Note that this field will not be available if the Request Asynchronous MDN and Request Email MDN options are checked.
MDN Email Address - The email address to which the destination partner should send MDNs. By default, this is set to the "[AS1OrgEmail]" macro, which represents the My Organization - Email Address field value of the AS1 host configured in the referenced AS2 host. Note that this field will only be available if the Request Asynchronous MDN and Request Email MDN options are checked.
