XML Schema Viewer Window
Specifies the XML schema of a file for which you want to create an XMLport or a data exchange definition so that users can import/export data to or from the file in question.
In the XML Schema Viewer window, you can select the data elements that you want to exchange with Microsoft Dynamics NAV, and then initialize either a data exchange definition or an XMLport. For more information, see How to: Use XMLSchemas to Prepare Data Exchange.
Note
Before you can view the XML schema file, you must load the file into the XML Schemas window.
When you have defined which data elements to include based on the XML schema, you can use the Generate XMLport action to create the XMLport object for import into the Object Designer. This is most relevant when you want to enable export to a file.
In addition, you can use the Generate Data Exchange Definition action to initialize a data exchange definition based on the selected data elements, which you then complete in the Data Exchange Framework. This creates a record in the Data Exchange Definition window where you continue by defining which elements in the file map to which fields in Microsoft Dynamics NAV. For more information, see How to: Enable Import/Export of Bank or Payroll Files Using the Data Exchange Framework.
