        You might want to look at using dynamic send ports, that is if your message will have information about where to send your message.

        Another option is to use Direct Binding to the message box. This will allow you to promote a field (like the value of Task) and then create a Send Port to subscribe to it. This would be a better way to go if you have a pre-defined number of possible sending locations.

        Hope this helps.

          Yes, you can promote a value from the message and use that as the transport address.

          Or, use some value in the message to pass into the rules engine to get an address back.

          Lastly, you can use parties. But that are a little hard to work with.

          Best of luck.

              Hi,

              In my orchestration, I’ve received a XML file like
              <jdf>
              <jdf task=’task1’/>
              <jdf task=’task2’/>
              <jdf task=’task3’/>
              </jdf>
              .

              I have to
              [1] split this file in unit files like <jdf task=’task1’/>
              [2] send each unit file to a directory defined by the task’s name.

              In my first orchestration, I’ve put a \”decide control\” to analyse the task’s name and I’ve created a port for each branch rule. It’s OK – no problem.

              Unfortunately, I don’t know the name of all the tasks. Tomorrow perhaps, a jdf will come with <jdf task=’task4’/>.

              Is it possible to have a dynamic orchestration?
              It is possible to decide where the unit files will be sent outside the orchestration?

              Thanks

              Raoul

                  Thanks for your answer.

                  I’ve used dynamic send ports and all seem to be OK.

                  Inconvenient: the destination should be present in my message.

                  Is it possible to use an external xml file or a text file to configure the send ports?

                  Thanks
