Creating an IDO that is linked to an M3 API

  1. Open the New IDO Linked M3 Interface (API) Wizard.
  2. Specify this information:
    Project Name
    Select an IDO project. If no project exists, create an IDO project using the IDO Projects form.
    M3 Interface Program
    Select an M3 API.
    Description
    Specify the IDO description.
    IDO Name
    Specify the IDO name.
    Label String ID
    Specify a string name to provide a translatable caption for this IDO.
  3. Click Next.
  4. Select an M3 API transaction from the drop down list of each of these transactions. At a minimum, an API transaction must be set for the List Transaction.
    • Get Transaction
    • Add Transaction
    • Update Transaction
    • Delete Transaction
    • List Transaction
  5. Click Next.
    The system displays a dialog box with the API columns and column descriptions of the selected M3 API transactions.

    If the error message "<string> Exists Multiple Times” appears, rename the highlighted Property Name value to correct the duplicate string. This error usually occurs when there are duplicate API field names.

  6. To create the IDO, click Finish.
  7. Refresh the IDO cache to begin using the created IDO.
