Specifying a new request/reply action

Specifying a new action for handling a Process BOD and sending an Acknowledge BOD in reply.

  1. On the Documents tab, click Add.
  2. Select the scenario Request / Reply.
  3. Define the statement used to handle the data from the incoming document. Use a stored procedure. In the statement specify the [Data] placeholder to refer to the incoming data.

    The incoming XML is a single DataArea which can contain one or more document instances. For example, when using SQL Server the statement can contain: EXEC ProcessItem '[Data]';

    The statement must provide an XML result set, containing the DataArea for the Acknowledge BOD to be published in reply.

  4. Click Test to test if the statement details specified are correct.
  5. Specify a Process BOD XML in the dialog box that is displayed.
  6. Click OK to run the test.
    You are informed if errors occur. If the test has finished successfully, check the database whether the data is stored as expected.
  7. Select the document. If the document is not defined in the ION Registry, add the required metadata.
