The system and method sends the formatted transactional process control information to the transactional information server via the web services interface and maps the formatted transactional process control information to an extensible markup language output schema associated with one of the plurality of information technology systems to form mapped transactional process control information. The system and method then sends the mapped transactional process control information to the one of the plurality of information technology systems.
