ACCESSING THE WEB API

Webopedia definition of "API"

API - application program interface

API, an abbreviation of application program interface, is a set of routines, protocols, and tools for building software applications. The API specifies how software components should interact and APIs are used when programming graphical user interface (GUI) components.  A good API makes it easier to develop a program by providing all the building blocks. A programmer then puts the blocks together.

Types of APIs

6.1 Mapped Fields And Batch Upload

THIS IS AN IKONOMIKAL PROGRAM

Fully Integrated With Other Ikonomikal Programs

THIS COULD BE YOUR PROGRAM

FEATURES:

• Your programs’ performance will be based on how much hardware you install.
• You can add any field or data you want in future revisions without asking us to modify our system.
• Your program will only communicate with Ikonomikal during a scheduled batch upload and use the ikonomikal MAP field in place of the Department Code. 
• The batch upload data is scheduled and can be monitored and then corrected before it goes to ikonomikal.
• Operations users can continue working even if ikonomikal is under maintenance or if you suddenly lost connection to ikonomikal. Only the batch upload will not run.
• Use this technique if you want to minimize inter system maintenance down-times. 

Think of a Point Of Sale System that connects to an ERP or any Accounting System. 

With mapped fields and batch upload, customers and cashiers are able to complete transactions even when the ERP or Accounting System is on maintenance.

Mapped Fields and Batch Upload is recommended

6.2 API in Real-Time communication

THIS IS AN IKONOMIKAL PROGRAM

Fully Integrated With Other Ikonomikal Programs

THIS COULD BE YOUR PROGRAM

FEATURES:

• You will have to map your program users to ikonomikal users so they could be assigned with the correct Roles (this is for each User you create in your system). 
• You need constant API Access and needs uninterrupted availability of ikonomikal.
• Which ever system is slowest, is your overall systems’ performance.
• The reverse of the features mentioned in the “MAPPED FIELDS AND BATCH UPLOAD”.

API in Real-Time communication is not recommended

THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS WHY 

YOU HAVE TO COMPLETE YOUR SYSTEM SO IT CAN RUN INDEPENDENTLY
