Defining Connections for a Business Adapter

Every business adapter needs a connection defined to the external repository of business data, from which information will be read. This is its connection to the source.

The collected information is zipped into an archived package on the inventory beacon, and automatically uploaded to the central application server. There, once a night, all uploaded packages are imported into the operations databases. You do not need to specify any connection details for the upstream target (or destination) database.

Use the same processes both for creating new connections, and for modifying connection details when you edit an existing adapter.
