The Echo Argument

Oracle CRM On Demand Web services using the methods Insert, Update, InsertAndUpdate, Delete, InsertChild, UpdateChild, and DeleteChild can specify an Echo input argument. The Echo string is used only for Integration events and is not required. Echo is case-sensitive and controls whether data sent to Oracle CRM On Demand through integration Web services are recorded as transactions. The default value is On. When the Echo value is On or missing, the transaction is recorded. When the Echo value is Off, the transaction is not recorded.

NOTE:  For Java users, the Echo string is required for all input methods. The echo string can be set to Off.
