Integration - Configuration

The configuration of TFS Integration involves instructing the software what to perform and from which systems, databases, etc. This configuration information is stored as a TFS Integration Profile (see Profiles).

Email Configuration

The email settings in the Integration Profile control who will be sent a log of completed integration jobs. It is important to ensure the email information is updated so that all staff affected by integration are informed of its progress.

The following outlines an ideal email notification system:

• Establish an Exchange Server Public Folder (e.g., TFS Integration Archive) with an email address (e.g., integration@yourcompany.com.au). This will allow staff (with the correct permissions) to view integration log emails through Microsoft Office Outlook.
• Identify the people who should receive email logs directly.
• Utilise the Insula Software integration email address (integrationsupport@insulagroup.com.au). Insula Software will archive integration logs that will be immediately available should any support issues or questions arise.

The email addresses for the items above should be entered into the Integration Profile configuration.

Configuration Review

Insula Software recommends performing a double check of Integration Profiles to ensure they are complete and correct. This is especially true when implementing integration directly into a production environment.

Insula Software is available to assist in reviewing Integration Profiles.
