Creating SCV BOI

A Business Object Interface (BOI) describes the target and source object names, input parameter or filter conditions (used while importing from the Source object) and field-level mappings between the target and source objects and so on. Also, BOIs are used to describe the import and export interfaces of the SCV integrations.

  1. Select Configuration > SCV > BOIs > BOI.
  2. Click New.
  3. Specify this information:
