Activate/Inactivate dispatch integration setting

The integration enables the automation of data transfers between IWRS and various vendor data providers. Currently, the shipment data exchange is supported via integration. To establish the shipment data providers for your study, you add the respective vendors to the list of integrations and configure their integration settings.

One such integration type is dispatch integration. Once configured and running, you might need to stop the file extraction temporarily but not permanently delete this setting. In IWRS, you can inactivate and activate your dispatch integration settings as required.

For instance, a dispatch integration is configured and ongoing but on the vendor's side, certain changes happened that influenced the data exchange process. While waiting for additional configuration details from the vendor, you do not want the IWRS system to generate failed file extraction records daily, so you inactivate this setting until further developments.

To activate or inactivate the dispatch integration setting for a vendor
  1. In the IWRS application header, select the INTEGRATION tab.

  2. From the left pane, select the Integration Setting subtab.
