Introduction

This page includes a list and definition of Complex Types used in the SOAP API environment of OneFlo. These complex types are used as INPUT to the Web Service calls to OneFlo in order to elicit a response. The RESPONSE may also be a complex type, especially when the expected response is an object with multiple attributes.

Guide:

Mandatory	Determine if the element is required when using this ComplexType.
M	Element must be declared.
O	Element may be omitted.
Direction	Determine when the element is used.
BOTH	Provided as both input and response from the Web Service
OUTPUT	Only provided as a response from Web Service

Consignment
