The business object event viewer shows information about the business object event calls as well as the response from the ERP. The data sent to the ERP and the response from the ERP are also available on this form.

 


Equally importantly, this form provides an audit trail for successful posts as well. The business object events table shows the ERP Journal number that was returned for a successful post. The Journal number, along with the scanner processed data details will then tell you exactly what happened in both systems to lead the result that was seen in ERP.

 

An extract of the Business object table is shown below. Note that the Key data field in many cases includes a complete summary of what was scanned as shown on the bottom line below.

 

Business Object Event Form

 

The LHS window shows various lines - there is an option at the bottom of the form to show only errors or to show all posts.

On the RHS, the XML details for a given post are shown. This is very useful - particularly the Outbound XML. This is the XML data returned by Syspro and makes the details of the error clear. There is data logged to the Business Object Event table that is not shown here. This data could be used for troubleshooting. An extract is shown below:

 

Useful Troubleshooting Data

Note the columns that are useful:

FLOW_STEP_PROCESSED_DATA_ID: This allows the post to be linked back to the calling step

RESULT_DATA: For posts that create documents such as PO Receipts, Godds in Transit transfers and Dispatch Notes, this column shows the name of the document that is created

SYSPRO_OPERATOR_ID: The ID of the Syspro operator used to do the post

POST_TYPE_NO: An ID to identify the post type eg - Live from Step, Buffered from Step, Live from Grid etc.

SYSPRO_COMPANY: Since the Syspro company can be dynamic, the company that was posted to is logged here.
