The MSMQReceiver component is used to receive messages from MSMQ. The name of the queue from which a message needs to be retrieved can be specified using the CPS.
Configuration and Testing
The MSMQ server and queue can be configured in the connection properties panel of Configuration Property Sheet (CPS).

Use case scenario
In the revenue control packet example the transaction file details are received from an MSMQ server from where they are picked up by other applications for processing.
Figure 7: Revenue control packet
The event process demonstrating this scenario is bundled with the installer. The bundled process shows it as a File Reader component instead of a MSMQ Receiver component.
Documentation of the scenario and instructions to run the flow can be found in the Help tab of the flow in eStudio.
Useful Tips
- If a queue specified in the CPS does not exist in a local or remote MSMQ server, it is not automatically created.
- This component runs only on Windows Platform.
