eLandings has already been successfully integrated with third-party applications in several ways. To list a few, some third-party applications:
- Pull data from eLandings
- Push data to eLandings
- Pull and push data to eLandings depending on the situation
The simplest configuration is to have pull data from eLandings to the third-party application. We recommend this as the first major milestone in third-party development. This alleviates third-party developers from having to match report validation rules found in eLandings. Such a set-up might look like:
Web service capabilities are provided to push data from third-party applications to the eLandings database. Developing third-party applications that push data to eLandings will prove more challenging. In particular, the business and mathematical rules associated with IFQ situations can be very complex. A third-party developer would find it very challenging and frustrating to match eLandings allocation and rounding rules exactly. Therefore we do not recommend pushing IFQ landing reports to eLandings at this time.
