SUMMARY
The BizTalk Orchestration Designer is a design-time tool that allows users to diagram and implement business processes. The business process typically includes the handling of business documents, and the business documents can include XML or non-XML data. However, BizTalk Orchestration places non-XML data within a CDATA section of an XML document.



MORE INFORMATION
For example, the non-XML data is wrapped in an XML document as follows:



  UNA-+.?  UNB+UNOA-2+(425) 5551212-12-address+(800)5551212-12-address+980608-1617+REFERENCE+PASSWORD-ZZ+MESSAGEID+ZZ+1+COMID+1 UNH+MESSAGE REFERE+INVRPT-D-93A-UN-CTIA01+COMMON ACCESS REFERENCE+27-C BGM+190---Document/message name+Document/message number+5+AA DTM+90-Date/time/period-101 NAD+BY+Party id identifi--1++Party name+++++Cou RFF+ZZZ-Reference number CTA+IC+-Department or employee COM+Communication number-EM CUX+2-Cur<BR/> LIN+12201++Item number-BP<BR/> IMD+F++-12--Item description-BUYER<BR/> LOC+18+Place/location identifica<BR/> DTM+191-Date/time/period-101<BR/> RFF+AEN-Reference number<BR/> QTY+17-22722-Mea<BR/> UNT+15+MESSAGE REFERE<BR/> UNZ+1+REFERENCE<BR/> <BR/>
