About: Generation

Generation is the process of transforming Microsoft Dynamics BC data into external data.

The Business Integration Solution allows the generation of arbitrary complex data, in different formats, from Microsoft Dynamics BC. The following steps are taken:

1. An event in Microsoft Dynamics BC triggers the generation.
2. Then a record set is constructed based on the event information.
3. An XML document is generated from the record set, as defined by the internal document definition.
4. (optional) The XML document is mapped to another XML document, as defined by the external document definition.
5. (optional) The XML document is translated to the final format.
6. The final document is written to an external system by means of an endpoint.
