OData and live calls

Hi there,

I have a project that uses OData for products and orders but am now also looking into options to do live calls. The business case is RMAs: the customer likes to use BC RMA functionality and not use our build-in features. The flow is somewhat like this:

1. User enters an email address and order number
2. This does a live lookup in BC to see if there's a matching RMA. If there is, return it and display it
3. If there isn't, fetch the invoice header and lines. 
4. Display the header and lines, letting users select what to return / report
5. Post to the RMA end point with the user's selected data.

Using Live Integration, I could use the Connector class to send and receive data to the ERP. How would that work in the new OData world?

Thanks!

Imar

Hi Imar,
 
Currently OData is only made for batch jobs. Everything related to live integration is still using older SOAP endpoint. We are working on having live integration functionality using OData in the current roadmap.
