In Business Integration Solutions, use the XMLPORTRECGENERATOR activity to generate records based on a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central XMLPort.
Usage
Use this activity to import data from a file into the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central database using an XMLPort.
Concept
Many AL (C/SIDE) developers and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central consultants are familiar with creating and working with XMLPorts. XMLPorts are object types that can import and export data. The data in XMLPorts is encapsulated in XML format, which makes it possible to exchange information between different computing systems in a streamlined way.
If you already have XMLPorts available and want to save configuration time, use the XMLPort Record Generator activity. This activity uses the XMLPort to import data into Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central.
When importing files into a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central database, you can replace an entire record or update specific fields in existing records. You can also automatically save the data you are importing, or manipulate the data in code before saving it using the Mapper activity.
