Step 1: Write the Server-Side Business Logic
Who performs: Business integration developer
Development tools needed: Software AG Designer with the Service Development perspective
The server-side business logic consists of the following:
An IS document type. This document type, referred to as the
business document type, defines the structure of the data you are synchronizing.
Adapter services. These services connect to the backend application and retrieve the data to synchronize.
Download and upload flow services. These services function as wrappers for the adapter services to pass data between the mobile device and the backend application. They contain the logic needed to identify the data to access and any transformation or mapping that may be needed for that data.
Notification services. These services alert
Mobile Support when the backend application has modified the backend data directly, and then update the
Mobile Support sync store to match the changes made to the backend data. Notification services require the creation of adapter notifications and IS triggers.
Before you start developing the business logic, identify the structure of the data to be synchronized.
