Getting Started in Macola Development 1

[Bokk]

I am just starting with Macola and would like to get some input from some experienced developers as to the best way to do so. We are a Macola customer, but as we have inhouse IT, our manager would like us to take on as much support as possible, or at the very least, be very involved as we add additional modules to our current system. I have worked in a different ERP, but on the surface access for doing modifications seems much more limited in Macola. I'm not sure if this is the case or I just don't know how to get into it. I have contacted Exact to see if they offer course(s) for developers (such as resellers might take) that would outline tools, connections, basic examples, common tables and relationships, etc., but am still waiting after almost 2 weeks, having emailed and phoned them.

If anyone knows of such a resource or can let me know if this is even available or how they got started, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
SGM

Thanks for your response and sample code. I'll go through it in detail to see everything that is being checked and processed. It's great to have something to refer to, especially when there are unique limitations in the environment.

Thanks again,
