Definition
Software & Cloud Services Terms (8 July 2026): "(Integration Platform) Exchanged Document means a discrete set (unit) of structured data (e.g. a purchase order, sales order, bill of materials, a supplier, etc.), represented in the Integration Platform event stream, that is exchanged between a publisher (the source) and a subscriber (the destination). If there are multiple publishers of and/or subscribers to an Exchanged Document, each additional publisher/subscriber shall consume one additional Exchanged Document (e.g. 1 publisher and 1 subscriber = 1 Exchanged Document, 1 publisher and 2 subscribers = 2 Exchanged Documents)."
Counting rules
Each additional publisher or subscriber consumes one more Exchanged Document. Allowances are pooled across integrations and expire monthly. Documents leave the event stream after 14 days; an unconsumed one counts as one.
Floors / minimums
