Partner Network Module

Page/Section: Module-PartnerNetwork-Overview

The Partner Network module enables configuration and management of partner-specific integrations. It supports connection creation for multiple transport industry segments such as TL, LTL, Parcel, Freight Broker, Telematics, 3PL, AIR, Ocean, and a Custom section that allows creation of generic integration types.

The module supports two login modes:

• SUPER ADMIN Domain
• Other Domains (Client / Partner Domain)

Menu Creation & Propagation Rules

Page/Section: Module-PartnerNetwork-Menu-Behavior

Action	Super Admin	Other Domains
Create Menu	✔ Allowed	❌ Not Allowed
Update Menu	✔ Allowed	❌ Not Allowed
Delete Menu	✔ Allowed	❌ Not Allowed
Create Connection	✔ Allowed	✔ Allowed
Edit Connection	✔ Allowed	✔ Allowed (for own created)
Delete Connection	✔ Allowed	✔ Allowed (for own created)

Menu Visibility Logic

• Menus created in Super Admin propagate to all other domains.
• Removing a menu in Super Admin removes visibility from all domains.
• Domain users can create and manage their own custom connections independently.

---

Editing & Deleting Connections

Page/Section: Module-PartnerNetwork-Connection-Management

When selecting a connection record:

• Edit button loads full form with populated values
• Save button updates changes
• Delete removes the connection after confirmation

---

Summary

Page/Section: Module-PartnerNetwork-Summary

The Partner Network module enables scalable and domain-governed integration configuration. With role-based control, dynamic menu management, and support for major communication protocols (JDBC, REST, SFTP, AS2, SOAP, SMTP), it centralizes connectivity across the integration ecosystem.

Domain Usage of Partner Network Menus

Page/Section: Module-PartnerNetwork-Domain-Usage

After a menu is created in the Super Admin Domain, it becomes automatically available to all Other Domains. Users in these domains can use the existing Partner Network menu to create new connection instances without having permission to update or delete the original menu.

## Domain Behavior Explanation

Action	Super Admin Domain	Other Domains
Create Connection Menu	✔ Allowed	❌ Not Allowed
Edit Connection Menu	✔ Allowed	❌ Not Allowed
Delete Connection Menu	✔ Allowed	❌ Not Allowed
Create Connection Instance	✔ Allowed	✔ Allowed
Edit Connection Instance	✔ Allowed	✔ Allowed (only own-created)
Delete Connection Instance	✔ Allowed	✔ Allowed (only own-created)

## Domain View Layout

When a domain user accesses the Partner Network page, the list displays:

• ID
• Name
• Type
• Description
• Status toggle
• Search bar
• Category filter
• Column selector
• Record selection checkboxes
• Pagination controls

Example UI elements based on screenshot:

[+] [Refresh] [Edit] [Delete] [Update] [Test] [Export]
| ID | Name | Type | Description | Status |

Users can click the Create (+) button to build a new connection using the selected menu template (e.g., REST, SFTP, AS2, etc.).

Created records appear in the table and support:

• Edit
• Delete
• Search & filtering
• Status toggle (Enable / Disable)

This ensures centralized control managed by Super Admin while allowing partners to configure their communication endpoints independently.
