Ongoing synchronization

The general flow for ongoing synchronization between an Infor source system and CPM model through BODs is:

  1. The Infor source system publishes BODs to its outbox table.
  2. After the BODs have been processed, disable inboxMonitoring for the CPM BOD service.
  3. In Architect, use the Import Wizard to import structure.
  4. In Architect, release the structure.
  5. In OpenLink, load data.
  6. In CPM Workstation, consolidate and verify the data.
  7. Enable inboxMonitoring for the CPM BOD service on the Set Properties page.
  8. Optionally, publish BODs from CPM to the receiving Infor source system to update structure or financial data.

You can use scripts to automate this process.
