Exchange Profiles within VariBon and Fidelio V8.

Summary

This article describes the way how VariBon and Fidelio V8 can exchange Profile data.

More Information

The tooliciousXMLInterface services to send profiles created in VariBon to Fidelio V8. However, profiles created in Fidelio V8 will not be sent to VariBon.

When a profile is created in VariBon the Profile has to pass a filter which can be defined in tooliciousXMLInterface and will therefore be created in Fidelio. By default the profile should contain the last name, email, phone, ZIP and street to be created in Fidelio V8.

After the profile was created by the interface it can be changed in Fidelio V8 and the changes will be sent back to VariBon. So the profiles will stay in sync.
