Upgrading Great Plains Dexterity Customization ? switching to new technologies: SQL, Crystal, eConne 1.� Replace Dexterity cursor with SQL Stored Procedure Dexterity was designed as multiplatform technology (primarily Btrieve, Ctree, SQL Server, potentially Oracle).� Dexterity data retrieving mechanism is based on Range start, Range End, Get First and Get Next clauses.� It� is in fact similar, however a little bit slower to cursors in Transact SQL.� Long ranges in Dexterity are good candidates for replacement by SQL stored procedures with update clause. For example, consider to replace following Dexterity code: Range clear SOP_HDR_WORK. Clear 'SOP Type' of table SOP_HDR_WORK. Clear 'SOP Number' of table SOP_HDR_WORK. Range start table SOP_HDR_WORK. Get first table SOP_HDR_WORK. While errEOF do ��������������� If 'Salesperson ID' of table SOP_HDR_WORK = "ERIC" then ������������������������������� Edit table SOP_HDR_WORK. Set 'Salesperson ID' of table SOP_HDR_WORK to "BILL". ��������������� Save table SOP_HDR_WORK. End if. Get next table SOP_HDR_WORK. End while. � With the following SQL code � Update SOP10100 set SLPRSNID="BILL" where SLPRSNID="ERIC" � Bringing new data into a table in Dexterity is based on change/edit table clauses, in SQL they are equivalent (by performance) to inserting one record at the time. When having long cycle of change/edit table in Dexterity, consider replacement by SQL stored procedure with Insert Into clause. � 2.� Use Crystal Reports, call them from via VBA in Modified form The easy way to call Crystal Report from your VBA code from your modified form: Const RPT = "D:ClientsTheClientInvoice Status.rpt" Public crwApplication As CRPEAuto.Application Public crwReport As CRPEAuto.Report Private Sub Print_BeforeUserChanged(KeepFocus As Boolean, CancelLogic As Boolean) If SalesTransactionInquiryZoo.Type = "Invoice" Then If crwApplication Is Nothing Then ��� ��������������������������� Set crwApplication = CreateObject("Crystal.CRPE.Application") End If Set crwReport = crwApplication.OpenReport(RPT) crwReport.ParameterFields(1).SetCurrentValue (DocumentNo) crwReport.Preview End If 3.� Use Direct .Net Web Publishing from Great Plains Database The easiest and safest way is to use eConnect - SDK with VB samples, created for eCommerce programmers and web designers to call the functionality in Microsoft Great Plains.� If your company can not afford eConnect - create your own set of stored procedures to address Great Plains database and go ahead with Visual Studio.Net to do the web publishing.

Crystal Reports, XML, ODBC/JDBC, OLE Lotus Notes Domino is very efficient in electronic document workflow automation. Unfortunately the electronic document workflow can not replace paper documents completely. For example some documents should be sent to your suppliers or customer in paper form.

But inbuilt Lotus Notes mechanisms providing such services as printing on the paper Domino database contents can not solve all reports generation objectives. ERP Consulting: Microsoft Great Plains Partner Future Directions In the Clinton era the status quo was simple: you serve your local clients and if you want to expand your business ? open offices in other business metros.

Microsoft CRM Software Development Kit (MS CRM SDK) which you can download from Microsoft website contains descriptions of the objects or classes, exposed for customization. It has sample code in C# and partially in VB.Net. In Visual Studio.Net you can analyze all the classes, used by Microsoft developers to create MS CRM - you will discover that most of them are not documented in MS CRM SDK.

Microsoft Navision Integration with Microsoft RMS - Overview for IT Specialist Microsoft Business Solutions Navision serves both European and American megamarkets.

In this small article we would like to give you the clue on Navision integration with Microsoft Retail Management System - Microsoft RMS. Constructionalist Parsing - Deciphering Natural Language The research in the field of Natural Language Processing usually assumes the existence of a syntactic "Generative Engine" that combines words and word-like elements into syntactic structures, and then sometimes displaces them by "syntactic movement". A Linguistic Parser must "undo" all the effects of syntactic movement, which results in a structure where the relations between the words are represented more directly. Microsoft CRM Custom Design & Development: SDK, C#, SQL, Exchange, Integration, Crystal Reports Microsoft CRM is new player on the CRM software market.� The whole conception behind CRM seems to be different.� In case of traditional CRM software (Siebel, Oracle) - the application was designed with platform independence in mind.� Microsoft CRM is dedicated to Microsoft technology and so deploys all the Microsoft tools: Windows Active Directory, Microsoft Exchange 2003/2000, SQL Server, Crystal Reports Enterprise, Biztalk server, Microsoft Outlook, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Great Plains as backend, etc. If you are software developer, database administrator or web designer who is asked: how do we customize Microsoft CRM ? we are giving you directions in this article. Microsoft CRM SDK ? this is software development kit with C# and partly VB.net code samples ? it is supported by Microsoft Business Solutions technical support.� It is based on web service calls, if you are C# .NET developer ? you are excellently positioned to do this type of customizations.� This is the preferred modification scenario and this should be easily upgradeable customization.� VB.Net examples will be available soon. Legacy SQL Data integration.� This is also easy and safe.� If you have SQL database, sitting on the same or linked SQL Server ? you can create ASPX .Net application and simply integrate it into CRM.� You can place it on the navigation bar or menu in isv.config ? please refer to MS CRM SDK Legacy ASP integration ? this is somewhat more sophisticated.� You have to deploy HTTP handler to be a middle party between CRM which is .Net based and ASP which is legacy IIS.� The trick is ? you have to have INI file with security settings to penetrate into MS CRM with proper credentials, calling web service. Microsoft Exchange Programming.� Microsoft CRM has Exchange connector ? which moves CRM incoming email to MS if it has GUID in its subject.� You can alter this logic (for instance - move email to CRM if it doesn't have GUID but it is from the sender who is contact or account in MS CRM).� Refer to MS Exchange SDK onsyncsave event handling.� Then simply apply some MS CRM SDK programming - you need some COM+ objects creation and VB programming experience. Direct SQL touch ? in #4 above I described you the scenario with MS Exchange handlers ? this would be ideal world if MS CRM SDK does the job.� But ? in real world this is not always true ? you have to do direct flags correction in CRM database (like making Activity closed, moving email attachments/octet streams, etc).� This is not supported by MBS technical support ? but you can rescue to this technique if you have to get job done. MS CRM Customization tool ?� this is rather end-user tool and we don't describe it here ? read the manual.� We've described above the options to use when this tool doesn't do the job Crystal Reports - feel free to create Crystal report - tables and views structure is self explanatory.� Try to avoid the temptation to create your own SQL view or stored procedure in MS CRM database, instead - create custom database and place your view and stored proc in it.� Happy modifying!
