Understanding the Integration Interface Wizard

Understanding the Integration Interface Wizard Within the Integration Interface Wizard, you create integration interfaces. An integration interface consists of at least one of the following: A data profile that specifies how to import a Demantra series, at the aggregation levels that you choose. A level profile that specifies how to import promotions and their attributes.

Once you have created an Integration Interface, you execute it to import data. You can run automatically an integration interface by incorporating it in a workflow controlled by the Workflow Manager. You also create a workflow that automatically runs an integration interface. Instructor Note Refer to Guided Demo Using the Integration Interface Wizard [LAB4042Y]
