Great Plains Operation

The Great Plains Operation defines how to interact with your Great Plains data. The Operation represents a specific action (e.g. Add, Modify, Query, or Delete) performed against a specific Great Plains record type or object (for example, Customers, Sales Transactions, Purchase Orders, etc.). Not all actions are available for every object. You will need to create a separate Operation Component for each action/object combination required for your integration.

The Operation supports two types of actions:

  • Get - Used to retrieve data from Great Plains.
  • Send - Used to send data to Great Plains.


Options Tab

Note: The configuration for Get and Send actions is identical.

Use the Import button to launch the Import Wizard which will help you configure the Operation. The wizard will automatically generate the Request and Response XML Profiles.
