Using Webcontrol, select the menu item Master data → Partner from the left navigation bar.
Click on the Create new entry button on the top right of the screen.
Enter a new unique alias for the partner to be created and a short description.
Go to the *AS2 tab on the left side and select the AS2 send profile previously created for this partner
Activate the option "Use as preferred communication profile" if you want to use the functionality SNDFILE of i-effect to automatically select the primary communication channel as defined in the master data of the partner.
