Option B sounds like a real-time workflow, which is like trying to microwave a frozen pizza - it might work, but it's gonna be a mess.

I'm torn between A and D. Both asynchronous solutions, but a custom workflow activity seems more flexible than a plugin. Although, plugins do have their advantages in terms of maintainability.

I'm not sure about option A. I think option C) a webhook connecting to an Azure Function could also be a good solution for integrating with external systems.

I agree with Thaddeus. Using an asynchronous workflow will ensure that orders with large line items can be processed without leaving records incomplete.

I'd recommend option C. Webhooks and Azure Functions are a powerful combination for integrating with external systems, and they can handle asynchronous processing without the need for custom development.

I think option C is a great choice. Webhooks and Azure Functions are very efficient for this kind of integration.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. A real-time workflow might be a simpler solution, and a custom action could still handle the long-running tasks. But I'm worried about leaving records in an incomplete state.

I see both points, but I think option D, an asynchronous plug-in, might be the best choice for this scenario.

I think option A is the way to go. Asynchronous workflows are perfect for handling long-running operations, and a custom workflow activity can encapsulate the complex business logic.

I disagree, I believe option C, using a webhook with Azure Function, would be more efficient.
