At our customer, we are using several BizTalk solutions to seperate different BizTalk applications. For example, we have an own application for interfaces for the warehouse system, subsidiaries, suppliers, etc. We also have one application with shared resources like mappings and schemas. When receiving files from Navision, they don’t have a namespace, so we need to add this ourselves. We do this in the receive pipeline. Now to be able to use one pipeline to receive multiple types of messages, my collegue Rex van der Laan created a pipeline component that can add namespaces depending on the root element of the message. Here is the code that does this.
