Episode 461: Brush-up on Customer Master Data by "Corporate Identification Number System Web-API" (Advanced ver.)

The last time, I published a case of cooperation with "Corporate Identification Number System" (Web-API).

◇2015-12-07: Brush-up on Customer Master Data by "Corporate Identification Number System Web-API"

This Business Process is a mechanism to automatically check if "the Names of Businesses in connection have changed" or not every week. It is automatically started at six o'clock in every Sunday morning. Human beings can detect naturally something to be corrected has occurred in "Customer Master (XML)".

However, it is on the assumption that "all the company has a Corporate Number". That is, it makes inquiry about all the companies listed one by one toward the "Web-API system". In reality, there exist trade partners who do not have Corporate Number. (Sole traders, foreign companies, etc.)

In the following Business Process Definition, it tolerate the presence of dummy number of "9999999999999" (13-digit 9) in the "Customer Master".

That is, it is the rule that to register "13-digit 9" for the business partners like overseas clients that do not have a Corporate Number. In addition, it is devised to make request for 10 instances at one time, toward "Web-API system".

When you take advantage of the automated Processes, such as the [Script Step], you will have significant benefits, such as "unmanned" or "speed".

However, on the other hand, the Knowledges of "HTTP communications" and "JavaScript" will be needed in proportion to the degree of "Automation". That means, there occurs a new risk that "people who are capable of maintenance are limited".

In this example, JavaScript in 50 lines and 100 lines have been set in two [Script Step] respectively.

It sure is not a very complex Scripts. Also, speaking of only this example, it is difficult to assume a case where modification is required. However, yet, you'd better off using it on tight consideration about the "Risks" in the operation of Workflow beforehand.
