Call types

Case 1: Pass data as Connect XML (client & server)

In this case the data is filled into the Connect schema. OneOffixx can thus directly trigger the document generation. However, in order to handle the individual data in the documents, OneOffixx still needs a Connect interface definition. This describes which fields are passed in the call so that they can be placed in the document itself or processed further in predefined logic.

Note

This is the default case and we explicitly recommend our customers to use schema-compliant XML for calls if possible.

Case 2: Data as Connect XML Type Data (client & server)

The call with Type Data works similar to case 1, but it does without the Connect interface definition. This affects the possibilities for further processing of data, but at the same time it is helpful if data for a set of templates cannot always be passed identically.

Case 3: Unstructured XML (only client)

It is possible that systems support data export via XML, but cannot format this data in a Connect-compliant way. In this case there is the possibility to let OneOffixx transform the unstructured XML directly into Connect-XML via XSLT transformations. However, it is important to note that the call of OneOffixx is subject to certain restrictions.
