Yes, the solution using the Data Management Framework's package API can meet the goal of importing large Microsoft Excel files with 15,000 or more records into Dynamics 365 Finance within a 5-minute approved window.
The Data Management Framework (DMF) is a framework that enables data entities and data packages to be imported, exported, and deleted from Dynamics 365 Finance. It provides a set of tools to manage data entities, data entities are the building blocks of data packages.
The DMF package API provides a programmatic interface to the DMF, allowing developers to create, read, update, and delete data packages. Using the package API, developers can perform data imports programmatically, which can be faster and more efficient than using the standard data import tools within Dynamics 365 Finance.
By using the package API, individual users can upload large Excel files with 15,000 or more records into Dynamics 365 Finance within the required 5-minute approved window. The package API can handle large volumes of data and is designed to optimize performance and scalability.
Therefore, the solution of importing the data by using the Data Management Framework's package API is an appropriate and feasible solution to meet the stated goal.
