About integration with other applications
Applications that are based on the Mongoose framework can integrate with other applications using a variety of methods, including but not limited to these:
- Point-to-point access using web services. 
           
See the IDO Integration with External Applications section in the help.
 - Business Object Documents (BODs) that are passed through ION to the other application. 
           
See the help topics about replication and BODs.
 - Point-to-point access through ION APIs. 
           
See the IDO Integration with External Applications section in the help.
 - XML documents other than BODs. Your Mongoose-based application can use non-transactional replication to send formatted files to a designated “site” for transfer to the other application.
           
See the help topics about replication and BODs.
 - Direct IDO communication with another application, for example, connection to Infor Document Management (IDM) and the Infor Data Lake.
