Synchronous and Asynchronous Post Execution Methods

Integrate supports two types of Post Execution Methods for a process: Synchronous and Asynchronous. 

Using the asynchronous method, Integrate posts data using a two-stage process when interacting with the target system. First, Integrate sends data to the target system, which processes the data. Second, Integrate then polls the target system for the posting status. When a process is added, the default post execution method is asynchronous.

The synchronous post execution method sends data to the target system and waits for a response for each record before posting the next record.  Template types BDC Script, GUI Script, and BAPI/RFC can use the synchronous post execution method.

Set the post execution method at the process level when adding or editing a process. On the Process page’s Vertical View, on the Advanced tab, select an option in the Post Execution Method list box. Refer to Create a Process for more information.
