Step actions

The Action attribute of each <Step> element defines the action the step will take. These values are supported:

• Create: Adds a new record.
• Update: Updates an existing record, if found. The step’s UpdateCheck attribute specifies a comma-separated list of properties that will be used to search for an existing record.
• Create, Update: Creates a new record if it doesn’t already exist, or updates the existing record if one is found. As with Update, the step uses the UpdateCheck attribute to search for an existing record.
• Lookup: Searches for an existing record, using the mappings as search criteria.
• Select: Same as Lookup.
• Sync: Used to synchronize a set of records in the Infor Public Sector database with the data in the import file. Records that exist in the XML but not the database will be added. Records that exist in both will be updated in the database to match the data in the import file. Records that exist in the database but not the XML will be deleted.
• None: The step performs no action on the target business object. Steps with no action can be used to perform various kinds of processing between steps.
