    Type Caption ToolTip
    Field Code Specifies an external system. The code is entered as System ID in Web Service calls.
    Field Description Specifies a description for the external system.
    Field Type Specifies the type of the external system. The type defines the behavior and capabilities of the external system.
    Field Status Specifies the status of the Web Service connection. Set the status to Active to allow Web Service calls from the external system.
    Field Unsynchronized Count Specifies the number of record changes still to be fetched by the external system through Web Service calls.
    Field Synchronization Type Specifies if the synchronization of this external system should be done via a log or performed directly when a change is detected. Doing this directly can have a negative performance impact, resulting in a poor user experience, and should be selected carefully.
    Field Integration Setup Code Specifies the code of the integration for this external system. This should be stated if the external system uses the Integration Queue for synchronization.
    Field Action on Sync Error Specifies how an error should be handled during synchronization.
    Field Show Error after Sync Specifies if an error message should be shown if any errors occurred during synchronization. This is only relevant when the field "Action on Sync Error" is configured to not stop on error.
    Field Synchronization Count Specifies the number of records returned per Web Service call or the number of records sent to an integration. "One at a time" returns one record per call, "All" returns all logged records, "Custom" returns the number of records specified in the field Custom Synchronization Count.
    Field Custom Synchronization Count Specifies the number of records returned when Synchronized Count is set to Custom.
    Field Show Duration after Sync Specifies if the duration of the synchronization should be shown for the user after the sync is completed. This can be useful when doing performance benchmarking.
    Field Change Log Delay (s) Specifies a delay, in seconds, that is used when change log entries are fetched. This is used because of the data cache mechanism in Business Central where a web service request could get an old version of the record, if it was recently changed in another service tier.
    Action Unsynchronized View a list of records that has not yet been synchronized to the external system.
    Action Synchronization History View the history of synchronization calls.
    Action Sync. History Lines View the history of logged entries that have been synchronized to the external system.
    Action Synchronize Synchronize this external system from the log.
    Action Init Unsynchronized Create log entries for all records in all tables set up for the specific external system. The time this will take is depending on the record count of the affected tables.
    Action Add Default Tables Add any default tables for this type of external system.
    Action Full Sync Perform a full synchronization of the external system. The behavior for this action depends on the type of external system, but the most common behavior is that the log entries are created for all records in all tables set up for the specific external system and then all these logged entries are synchronized to the external system. The time this will take is depending on the record count of the affected tables.
    Action Search History Search the synchronization history.
    Action Synchronize Block Changes Setup Synchronize block change settings to all configured companies.
    Action Copy External System from Copy all settings from a external system you select, to current external system. Current system must be empty, that is, no tables or subsystems may be setup.
    Action Export External System Export the current external system setup to a file. In combination with the import functionality the file can be used to transfer the setup of the external system between companies/environments.
    Action Sync to Company Guide Open a request page and configure this external system with default settings for synchronization to companies.
