Options
Prevent BOD Publishing

If this check box is selected, LN does not publish BODs.

To prevent LN from publishing BODs before the setup in LN is completed, complete these steps:

  1. Select this check box.
  2. Complete the configuration of the integration.
  3. Clear this check box.
  4. Run the initial load sessions.
Inbound Routing Error Handling

Use this field to specify the action to take when an incoming BOD cannot be processed because the company is not equal to the company in which the BOD is received, or the Accounting Entity and Location cannot be matched in the Tenant, Accounting Entity and Location (tcemm3100m000) session.

Allowed values

Return Error

An error is returned. Infor ION shows the error BOD. If the incoming BOD is a process BOD, an acknowledge BOD is published.

Log Error

The error is logged in the log file: log.bod.error. No error is returned.

Ignore Error

No error is returned or logged.

Note: In a multicompany structure, inbound BODs are sent to multiple companies. To test if incoming BODs are correctly processed in a multicompany structure, it can be useful to specify this field as Return Error or Log Error. Because only one company must process the BOD, set this parameter to Ignore Error after testing.
Schema Version Mode for BOD Publishing

You can specify the schema version with which the integration must be compatible, or always select the latest schema version.
