SYSPRO Posting Patterns

Overview​

This document describes the patterns and mechanisms used for posting transactions to SYSPRO, including validation, error handling, and rollback strategies.

Key Concepts​

  • Transaction Posting: Writing data to SYSPRO tables
  • Validation Rules: Pre-posting checks
  • Audit Trails: Transaction history tracking
  • Error Recovery: Rollback and compensation
  • Batch Processing: Multiple transaction handling

Posting Mechanisms​

Direct Database Updates​

For simple updates to custom tables using Entity Framework or Dapper.

SYSPRO Business Object Posts​

For complex transactions requiring SYSPRO business logic validation.

Batch Processing Patterns​

Handling multiple transactions with proper error recovery and partial success scenarios.

Validation Patterns​

Pre-posting validation ensures data integrity:

  • Field-level validation
  • Business rule checks
  • Period control validation
  • Authorization verification

Error Handling​

Comprehensive error handling for posting failures:

  • Transaction rollback
  • Compensation logic
  • Error logging
  • User notification

Best Practices​

  1. Always validate before posting
  2. Use transactions for multi-step operations
  3. Maintain audit trails
  4. Handle partial failures gracefully

Summary​

Proper posting patterns ensure data integrity and consistency when updating SYSPRO data, providing reliable transaction processing with appropriate error handling.
