Operational support includes a comprehensive combination of reference documentation, reference application code and interactive communications with experienced PSP technical staff to help you through every step of the implementation process.
- Detailed implementation guidelines explaining the “hows” and “whys” of the specification.
- Reference implementations in .Net or Java managing a number of PSP specific requirements for Dealer Service Providers and Suppliers.
Dealer Service Provider Reference Code
PSP Client Code
- Compliant to PSP Web Services Specification
- BOD correlation between request and response
- Caching of supplier endpoints, Service Policy, and Business Rules
- Can simplify DSP effort to implement PSP
- Duplicate message and BOD elimination
- Supports asynchronous confirmation
DMS Implementation Responsibilities
- Display and control of the information related to each BOD supported
- User selection of supplier specifiable business rules
- Error handling and reporting
Supplier Reference Code
PSP Web Service Functional Description
- Compliant to PSP Web Services Specification
- Queue BODs for asynchronous processing and receipt
- Duplicate message and BOD elimination
- Communicates supplier specific Service Policy and Business Rules (can be data driven if needed)
- Translates supplier specific errors into standardized error mechanisms
- Translates between BODs and supplier specific data formats
- Can communicate with the supplier backend system using required protocols
Supplier Interface General Functional Requirements
- Authenticate users (this responsibility could be assumed by the PSP Service)
- Process the PSP transactions supported by the supplier. These backend transactions may use existing interfaces. For example:
- Part order creation
- Part order status
- Part pricing and availability
- Part shipments
