The step inserts/updates objects on the OpenERP server in bulk using the 'import_data' function. The same import function used by the OpenERP GTK client. The only exception to using the import function is when the Return ID option is selected. All new rows (rows that failed the lookup) are created individually using the 'create' function on the OpenERP server. The create function returns the ID that we need to return to the output stream.
