ION channel and receiver configuration
ION Connect is a messaging hub provided by Infor. The channel/receiver is for receiving messages, called Business Object Documents (BODs) from ION Connect. Each BOD received from ION Connect can be assigned to a receiver. Those receivers are assigned to a channel. Each channel is assigned to one connection point in the ION Connect server.
Many Infor Lawson customers who process ION BODs do so through pre-configured channel or receivers that are delivered as scripts through an application. Use these procedures if you are setting up your own channel or receivers, or if you need additional information about the options that were preconfigured for your systems.
With some releases of Infor Process Automation, it is possible to receive BODs in a batch of two or more BODs. This is a way for ION to receive large data sets.
These configuration instructions include information on setting up for batch BODs. You can also process batch BODs.
