In ION Desk, a configuration page is available to create a list of connection points. Connection points provide the information that ION uses to connect to an application’s message inbox and outbox. At least one connection point must be defined for each application instance that integrates to ION.

For each connection point, you select the BOD documents that can be sent or received by the application instance. These correspond to the BODs that are listed in "BODs used in HxGN EAM integrations".

In an integration between two BOD-enabled applications, document flows are set up to define the BODs that flow between the application connection points.

A connection point can be reused multiple times in one or more document flows. Connection points can also be created during the modeling of a document flow as part of the details of the document flow elements. The connection points that are created during the modeling of a flow are added to the shared list of connection points, and they can be reused.

Some integrations with HxGN EAM use a solution XML file to set up sample connection points and document flows.

See the Infor ION Connect Administration Guide for additional information about connection points and document flows.
