• Before the Internet Transaction Server (ITS) can
  process EBP requests, entries in table must be

  URL, which controls the menu on the left hand
  side of the screen that shows all of the
  transactions users have access to. The URL varies
  depending on which the EBP client the
  configuration is performed in and it also
