Hi John,
Is there any application to export data into XML/CSV format or its a manual
step?
if you have application in place then the same application could connect to
internet and send data to your webserver. you will need to write a
webservice on your webserver to accept the incomming XM/CSV data.
if its a manual step, then for now i would suggest after exporting data into
XMl/CSV you upload the data to your website. give your users a web page to
upload the file.
Regards
