Data from the ERP system can be written directly into the eBiss database using existing views. From here, the data can be transferred very quickly (see Performance) into the ArticlePool. The views are as follows:

• ArticlePool_FillArticleCache_View , for the item data.
• ArticlePool_FillPriceLineCache_View , for price data.
• ArticlePool_FillTextCache_View , for the texts.
• ArticlePool_FillCustomItemsCache_View for items Custom Items.

The job to transfer the data is as follows: Figure 1

To fill the date with views you can:

• Before job execution : The “ ExternalFillProcedure ” property of the jobsteps “ TradeItemManagerFillCache ” must be empty.
• Execute in the job : In the job step “ TradeItemManagerFillCache ” in the property “ ExternalFillProcedure ”, you must specify your procedure for filling the views.

e.g. for “before the job execution” for posting items: Figure 2

If all the data relevant to the posting is compiled directly from the merchandise management and written into the corresponding cache table , then only the jobstep “ TradeItemManagerBookCache ” is necessary. The job is then constructed as follows: Figure 3
