About: Processing

Processing handles data from and to the database via Business Integration Solutions.

BIS handles arbitrarily complex data in different formats, to and from Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.

For importing data, the common scenario is:

1. An endpoint receives an external data document.
2. (Optional) The document converts into an XML document.
3. (Optional) The XML document maps to another XML document, as defined by the internal document definition.
4. The internal XML document converts into a list of database actions, such as inserts and updates.
5. The updates apply to the Microsoft Dynamics BC tables involved, respecting validation and business logic execution.

[End Point] ➡️ [External Document] ➡️ [Mapping] ➡️ [Internal Document] ➡️ [Database Transaction] ➡️ [Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central]

For exporting data, the common scenario is:

1. An internal trigger responds to an action in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.
2. The scope recorded by the trigger converts to a message as an XML document.
3. (Optional) The message transforms into a business format accepted by the external party.
4. (Optional) The document formats into a different data format (for example, CSV, text, HTML, or JSON).
5. The message sends to the receiver.
