CREATING BCS APPLICATIONS


Solution Types

Intermediate AdvancedSimple

• Custom connectivity for data aggregation, transformation, security, etc.• Use custom code to

integrate data into any Office app• Business logic in

forms

• Create reusable components (UI parts, ECTs, actions)

• Out-of-box• Surface data in

External Lists• Connect those lists

to Outlook, SPW• External Data
