Feeder Logic

You’re using Feeder logic when you need to:

feed/supply objects to process in another logic/process
- commonly used in rebate allocation process

Logic API

Logic Nature: default
- Logic Type: Calculation/Pricing
Execution Types:
- Syntax Check - to define the input fields
- Standard - to find out which objects we want to process and emit those objects
Information provided to the logic
in Standard mode
- input[] - values entered by user in configuration of the process (e.g. usually the feeder inputs values entered on allocation calculation dataload configuration page)
- api.currentItem() - the context, in which it runs (likely the Dataload process definition)
Expected logic execution outcome
- from Syntax Check mode
  - input field definitions
- from Standard mode execution
  - emit the objects to be processed by the process, which is using this Feeder. You can use several methods to achieve that, for example:
    
    api.emitRebateRecords()

DL_BonusOnSales_Feeder - example of logic emitting the objects - in this case rebate records.
DL_BonusOnSales_RebateAllocation - example of logic, which is consuming/using the objects (rebate records) emitted by the Feeder logic
