This topic describes sample inbound and outbound messages for the create action in Application Integration Framework (AIF) document services. An inbound create message can specify one or more records to be added. After the inbound message is processed, AIF generates a single outbound message that contains the unique entity key value for each record that was added.
Inbound Create Message Sample
The following inbound create message specifies that one record is added to the SalesTable table, and one record is added to the child SalesLine table.
The XML tags that are specific to this message are the service tag <SalesOrder>, and the two data source tags <SalesTable> and <SalesLine>.
The following example message has a header that contains a unique message ID and an Action tag that specifies the create operation for the SalesOrderService service. Line breaks have been added for readability.
