I’m currently working on developing interfaces between Infor LN (CSIE) and other external systems using the JSON REST API protocol. I have a few questions regarding possible approaches:
- Inbound Interface:
For one inbound interface called by an external system, can we use Infor ION to create a workflow that triggers multiple BODs?
Additionally, is it possible for the workflow to retrieve data from one BOD first, and then call another BOD to insert the processed data into LN? - Outbound Interface:
Can we call two different BODs (e.g., Production Order and Warehouse Order) and merge the data from both before sending it to an external system via a single outbound interface? - Direct API Development:
Is it possible to develop APIs directly on ION to receive or send data and exchange it with LN without using BODs?
If yes, what is the recommended approach or component in ION to handle this?
Any guidance or examples from your experience would be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
