Ability to import vendor catalogs using OData/ DMF.

We have many vendors supplying our customer specific catalogs via their API. It would be good to have the capability to automate the vendors catalog import process. Currently in D365, the catalog import process is manual, where the users have to manually upload the CMR file from the UI. As we have many vendor catalogs, it is a full person's job.

In our requirement, we want to build a functionality in our middleware where we will call the vendor's API, convert the catalog data into CMR format, and then push the data into D365 via OData/ DMF. Later the workflow would kick in to approve/ reject/ update the products. This process will remove the steps to manually upload the CMR file.
