MORE INFORMATION

To make sure that the account that is used for the identity of the BizTalk Server Interchange Application has the correct rights to invoke the Submit and the SubmitSync methods, follow these steps:

1. Modify the BizTalk Server Interchange Application COM+ Component to control who submits work items.
2. Add a new role to the BizTalk Server Interchange Application.
3. Associate the Submit and the SubmitSync methods with the new role.
4. Configure the BizTalk Server Interchange Application to run under the context of a particular user account.

Step 1: Modify the BizTalk Server Interchange Application COM+ Component to Control Who Submits Work Items

When you modify the BizTalk Server Interchange Application COM+ component, you can control which users are permitted to submit work items to BizTalk Server 2000. Because the BizTalk Server Interchange Application is a COM+ application, it uses several security configuration properties. For example:

• Authentication level
• Impersonation level
• Access permissions
• Launch permissions
• Configuration permissions

To control which users are permitted to submit work items, you must add a new role to the BizTalk Server Interchange Application and then associate that role with the Submit and the SubmitSync methods.

1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Component Services.

8. In the resultant dialog box, click Yes.
9. Under BizTalk Server Interchange Application, right-click Roles, point to New, and then click Role.
10. In the Roles dialog box, type Submit to name the role, and then click OK.
