SignalMessage Property

Whether or not this message is a signal.

Syntax

public boolean isSignalMessage();
public void setSignalMessage(boolean signalMessage);

Default Value

False

Remarks

SignalMessage is a boolean value indicating whether or not the message is a signal. Signals do not contain content that is of business nature. Instead, they are simply acknowledgments to business actions.

RNIF 2.0 specifies two types of signals: a positive, and a negative. A positive signal has all of the properties of a valid RosettaNet action message, however it is simply an acknowledgement of receipt of a valid Business Action message. A negative signal is an acknowledgement sent to notify the originating entity of an error. In RNIF 2.0, there is only one type of exception message, as opposed to the three types in RNIF 1.1.

NOTE: only Business Actions may be acknowledged, Signals cannot.
