communicate NAVISION with another application

fle7a

Hi,

I have to communicate NAVISION with another application using Biztalk.
The main idea is to share projects between Navision and this aplication.

I know that I have o use XMLports but I don't know how to use them and to send them via Biztalk.

Thanks

Search this forum for NAS and XML and Biztalk and you will find hundreds of articles.

Use it as it is (but it has some issues) or use it as an example.

thank you for the reply,

I tried to document myself on that but I found vague information.

The fact is that I have to communicate an oracle database with Navision.
I created XML files which include changes in Oracle database and now I have to upgrade Navision database (or sql server) with these changes.

So I have to use Biztalk to communicate with these batadases.

Can you tell me more details on what I have to do step by step because I'm trying to do sth without succes...

You don't *HAVE* to use Biztalk, you can send the XML straight into a message queue and receive them into Navision. Have you discussed this requirement with your solution center?

the data from the oracle database have to be treated and conversed into others forms.. that s why we use Biztalk...

You don't *HAVE* to use Biztalk to translate XML into another format if that format doesn't exist in NAV yet. If you need to develop an interface for incoming XML, you can just program your interface to accept the format that you have and map the available values into NAV fields.

<edit>of course if you are already using biztalk and this would be plugging NAV into existing software it would make sense to go that way. I was coming from where you don't have BTS yet and you're thinking about getting it for this interface.</edit>
