Steps
Call GetOrderFormFields first (HTTP POST with Username/Password) to retrieve current enumerated values for fields like loan type, appraisal type, and occupancy type.
Build the order XML using only the enumerated Description values returned by GetOrderFormFields.
POST Username, Password, and XMLPost as form data to https://www.mercurynetworkapi.com/mercuryAPI.asmx/PlaceMNOrder.
Check the returned bResult; if true, capture TrackingID and TrackingNumber for later status polling.
If bIsAssigned comes back false, the order is in "Requires Assignment" status and needs manual or automatic assignment before it proceeds.
Known gotchas
Authentication is a plain username/password form POST, not OAuth or an API key, so credentials must be stored and transmitted securely by the integration.
Field values must exactly match GetOrderFormFields' enumerated Description list, or the order errors; free-text values aren't accepted for enumerated fields.
