My first recipe monitored our MS Dynamics CRM for new and updated Accounts and passed them to our Labware LIMS system as CUSTOMER records via a SOAP API. Saving on double entry of data and freeing up lab staff from admin so they can do their actual analytical jobs. It is still running in Production and very little has needed changing. Add a new field here, tidy some data there. The job is being done and I’m not sure what I could change to make it “better”..
