Automatic data import

MarioF
Hi all,

I need to import some products from another database. I think that I can do it manually in the following way:

1- The other database generates some xml file with all the products to import in the ofbiz database and allow the access with one URL.
2- XML Data Import in the webtools application.

My question now is, how can I make an automatic data import? I mean, for example, that every day ofbiz goes to the same URL and import the same file. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

I think that I found the solution. I write here for anyone who is interested.

The service that makes this is entityImport. In the Webtools -> Service Engine Tools the user can Schedule job with the parameters of the service.
