Trading Partner Synchronization Action |
Top Previous Next |
Synchronizations are defined in triggers that use the Trading Partner Synchronization Action. As with all triggers, you can specify an Event that would initiate the synchronization process as well as a set of Conditions that need to be satisfied before the synchronization process (defined by the Trading Partner Synchronization Action) could ever commence. For example, you can choose the Current Time event and specify a date and time in the Trigger Conditions dialog to let the synchronization run on a predefined schedule. To learn more about Triggers and how to create them, read the chapter on Trigger Management.
After selecting a Trigger Event type and specifying a Trigger Condition, proceed by adding the Trading Partner Synchronization Action.
