This is especially true statement, when we are talking about such a product as Microsoft Great Plains. It is actually written in former Great Plains Dexterity, which in turn is C shell and IDE with its proprietary programming language sanscript. In this small article we would like to bring the initiative to probe coding, customization, integration and technology deployment
o Dexterity. This work point of the work to the fat is the fact that it makes you to integrate your work into the fact From Dexterity buttons you can call dll procedures, which in turn you can be programmed and debugged with MS Visual Studio C # or VB dll project. To go beyond the prototyping - you should be aware that Dex allows you everything and access to unlimited resources in GP, but it is not classical object-oriented tool - it is rather procedural and cursor oriented, when we are accessing DB
eConnect. eConnect has modern interfaces: XML web services, for example, plus its designers tried to organize eConnect "objects" to reflect natural GP master records and transactions: customer, employee, Sales Order, Invoice, etc.
When dex scrolling window is based on dex temp table, which in turn is based on MS SQL Server view - you can combine multicompanies data in one dex scrolling window
o Solution. Create Dex new screens, where place scrolling windows, based on multicompany data. Then deploy eConnect power to manipulate Microsoft Dynamics GP objects
o You have some payment agent in the USA and internationally and you need to pay agent invoices as well as receive payment from the agent, when you close agent transactions at Your headquarters. This is where you combine Dexterity and eConnect functionality to do the job
