EASaveToAnotherServerUsingJSON

Overview

Synchronizes data between Nama ERP servers using JSON format for data transmission. Provides more flexible alternative to direct DTO transfer through JSON export/import.

When This Action Runs

• Trigger: Manual execution or automated synchronization
• Target: Any entity record requiring JSON-based replication
• Purpose: Server synchronization with JSON format flexibility
• Timing: On-demand or scheduled for data consistency

How It Works

1. Exports entity to JSON using JsonRecordExporter (full structure)
2. Applies field overrides to JSON before transmission
3. Transmits via CoreWS using importJsonFromAnotherServer() method
4. Imports on target server with configuration options for references and drafts

Key Differences from Standard EASaveToAnotherServer

Advantages

• Format Flexibility: JSON is more portable and debugging-friendly
• Complete Structure: Exports both header and collection data

Limitations

• Keep Creation Date: NOT SUPPORTED (throws exception)
• Performance: JSON serialization adds processing overhead

Parameters

Same as EASaveToAnotherServer except:

Parameter 12: Keep Creation Date

• Status: NOT SUPPORTED
• Behavior: Throws NaMaBusinessLogicExeption if set to true
• Workaround: Use standard EASaveToAnotherServer for creation date preservation

Other parameters work identically:

• Server URL, Login ID, Password
• Draft mode, reference handling, field overrides
• Dimension management, bulk processing via SQL

JSON Structure Example

{
  "EntityTypeName": [
    {
      "code": "INV001",
      "description": "Sample Invoice",
      "valueDate": "2023-12-01",
      "lines": [
        {
          "itemCode": "ITEM001",
          "quantity": 5,
          "unitPrice": 100.00
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Database Tables Affected

Same as base class:

• Source Entity - The entity being synchronized
• SentEntityToAnotherServerSysEntry - Audit log of synchronization attempts
