The Network

Posted Mar 17 2010 by Kim Forsman in Introduction, Uncategorized with 0 Comments

The Maventa platform is a decentralized infrastructure developed to offer a fault-redundant network for secure transmission of B2B and B2C trade documents. The platform is built with stateless shared-nothing approach, utilizing latest Service Oriented Architecture (“SOA”) techniques and principles.

The platform offers open Application Programming Interfaces (“API”), which are exposed as Web Services Description Language (“WSDL”). All communications to the API’s are exchanged as SOAP-messages over HTTP with SSL/TLS.

The API can consume either parameter-based information or whole XML-documents including attachments. The platform converts any input automatically to the required delivery output format.

Maventa platform offers currently four (4) delivery methods.

  • Internal transactions within the Maventa network. The invoice is delivered to the recipient’s account and the sending party is notified when the invoice has been seen, accepted, declined, disputed or rerouted.
  • Electronic relaying to other hubs / banks in an electronic format agreed between Maventa and the receiving hub. The sending party will instantly receive a notification of a successful transfer and an acknowledgement from the receiving hub as the invoice has been delivered to the receiving party’s system.
  • Secure notification through e-mail, where the recipient receives a link to the Maventa submission service. The invoice can be either; accepted, declined or disputed. The visualized invoice (PDF), additional attachments and XML-representations can be obtained from the submission service and downloaded by the recipient. The invoice can also be rerouted by the recipient through the submission service to an external operator or the printing service.
  • Printing and postal service. The visualized invoice is delivered to a printing partner. The printed invoice includes a link to the submission service, should the customer require obtaining electronic copies of the invoice and possible attachments for further record.
