When the developers have made “Formats” available in Link it’s possible for Link business users to do the implementation of new partners on their own - if the partner agrees in one of the available formats.
Advantages of doing the implementation in the business:
They know the current flow with the partner (customer/supplier)
They know product data for the products in question
The developers don’t have to be involved in the whole process
