    Page NAV-X Integrations

    Before you can use the Integration Framework, you need to define the actual integration. The page can be opened by choosing the Tell me what you want to do icon, enter NAV-X Integrations, and then choose the related link.

    The following fields are available on the page. The fields are non editable.

    Title You can give the integration a unique name to identify the integration in the future.
    Description Enter a description for the integration and explain what the integration does.
    Integration Type
    The type of the integration defines what format the other data source is. The following options can be selected:

    - Excel
    Direction You can define the direction of the integration. The following options can be selected:

    - Import
    Skip Header Lines You can define whether the integration contains lines that should be ignored, such as headers or other data that can be ignored.
    Processing Report A custom processing report can be defined here. If no report is defined, the standard processing report will be used, which typically is enough for most integrations.
    Note

    Currently, it is only possible to create Excel integrations that are Imported into Business Central, but we will be adding more in the future.

    Actions

    Fields action

    Once the general integration is defined, fields in the data source need to be configured. This can be done by invoking the action Fields and opening the Integration Fields page.

    Mappings action

    After the integration and the fields in the outside data source are created, these fields need to be mapped to tables and fields within Business Central. This can be done by invoking the action Mappings and opening the Integration Mappings page.

    Records action

    The Records action opens the Integration Records page, which shows the data that is ready to be processed, has been processed, or is in an error state.

    Import... action

    The Import... action is only available when the integration has the Direction Import. It will allow you to choose a file that then gets imported into the Integration Records page page. After the import is completed, the application will ask you, if you want to process the records that were imported immediately. If you select Yes, the import is completed and the data within Business Central is updated. If you select No, the Integration Records page can be opened and the data reviewed.
