To trade EDI Documents with a partner in Infoplus, you must first setup an AS2 Partner record which defines how Infoplus and your partner will exchange documents. After establishing an AS2 Partner record, you can then create one or more EDI Connection records from a single AS2 partner.

Setting up the AS2 Partner
To setup a new AS2 Partner in Infoplus, after you have received your partner's AS2 connection details (as mentioned above), navigate to the AS2 Partner table and click Create New.
- In the Name field, give this AS2 Partner a meaningful name for identification purposes.
- Enter the AS2 Id and AS2 URL that the partner has given you.
- For the Request an Asynchronous MDN field, it is recommended to select False - but, if your partner requires Asynchronous MDN, then select True.
- If your partner will be Signing Documents that they send to you, set that field to True, then paste in the partner's Signing Certificate in the text box below. The certificate should be in PEM format.
- If you want to send encrypted documents to your partner, set the Encrypt Documents field to True, select the Encryption Algorithm to be used, and then paste in the partner's Encryption Certificate in the text box below. The certificate should be in PEM format. Note that in most cases, you will use the same certificate for both the Signing Certificate and the Encryption Certificate.
- Save the connection record.
When you are finished creating an AS2 Partner, you can then proceed with creating EDI Connections.
