However, using IntegrationManager and the integration templates will allow subject matter experts (customers and partners) to build inbound and outbound data migrations. We are committed to the tools and strategy that will transform this highly technical black-box process into a learned series of tasks that will accelerate our projects and ensure data quality.

What are the common uses of IntegrationManger?

The Pricefx solution has several critical data requirements that need to be met before the project team can begin to implement a customer’s pricing requirements. These data requirements will be fulfilled by the IntegrationManager using Integration Templates and these templates are designed to support these common usages:

Data Requirement

Direction
