API Feed from outside source

Post by dmeylerweichert »

Hi Team,

I am looking to add an outside feed into a lookup table for the "Order Contacts" section.

I need to match data from an outside source for "Selling Agent/Broker" section of Order Contacts. The data needs to be identical.

Please let me know,

Thank you,

Sorry but this is too broad in scope to be answered in this DevForum. I recommend you contact Elliott Potts (the Development Manager for our Custom Application group) to discuss your needs.

There are many ways to attack this issue. One possibility is creating a Select server package that periodically does some form of synchronization between the lookup tables and the source data. This would require careful thought since if it causes updates to the tables too frequently, it will slow the response of the user interface.

Sorry I can't be of more help.
