To the best of my knowledge, the sole requirement for RECEIVE ORDER is a certificate issued by the ShopzSeries web site.
What happens when you go to ShopzSeries, select Create New Order, and then under "z/OS - Service" you select "Service certificate"? That certificate, when installed on your z/OS system, is what makes RECEIVE ORDER act like your userid in ShopzSeries, and allows your RECEIVE ORDER batch job to interact with ShopzSeries (and IBM's back end systems) just like your userid can interact with the ShopzSeries web site directly. This entire process has absolutely no connection or relationship with IBMLink. Or at least that's how I understand it.
