The Infor Lawson Adapter activity node
The Infor Lawson Adapter node enablesInfor Process Automation to invoke and communicate with the Infor Lawson system.
Infor Lawson Adapter performs Transaction Service (AGS) transactions to Infor Lawson applications. Infor Lawson Adapter has the following differences from the Transaction Service activity:
-
Infor Lawson Adapter works with the TX Adapter activity. The Adapter's input data is generally the output of a TX Adapter activity.
-
Infor Lawson Adapter creates Transaction Service (AGS) strings itself based on its input data.
-
Infor Lawson Adapter can perform multiple Transaction Service (AGS) calls as needed to process the input data. The Adapter's ability to make multiple Transaction Service (AGS) calls allows an unlimited number of detail lines to be added through an online form that supports a fixed number of detail lines.
