VARs - System Integrators - Developers
Systems Integrators:
Ssystems integrators can build complete customized solutions, linking desktop workflow to back end accounts to provide a total solution by linking with Accounting Office's Bisoenss Object Model..
There are two important principles to follow when using Accounting Office
1) To get information out of Accounting Office, SQL queries are usually the best way
2) To enter information into Accounting Office you should never use SQL. Instead use the Accounting Office Business Objects.
Entering information into a SQL database directly is dangerous. When our accounting engine enters information into the database it uses many layers of protection and validation. If you enter information directly all this protection is lost.
Business objects provide a quick and easy way to create orders, invoices and other transactions. Using business objects is much quicker than trying to assemble SQL statements and also provides robust protection.
To see an example of using business objects to create a sales invoice, download the business object model click here Customizing Accounting Office . In the help file, select the help for customizing Accounting Office with VB. You will see a major heading ‘Business Objects’. Below that you will see an indented subheading ‘Direct Sales Invoices’ Here will you will find an explanation of how to create a sales invoice using business objects.
Cashbacs use this method of linking their BACS system with Accounting Office and you can read what they say here.
Developers:
Because Accounting Office is a COM object, it can easily be programmed from any development environment that supports COM. This could include writing a Macro in another VBA enabled application, or writing a program in Visual Basic.
Developers can leverage the full power of our Accounting Engine to add functionality to their applications and provide a full solution. The object model is fully documented, with many easy to follow examples. (VB Manual.pdf)
Accounting Office has been developed using the most up to date object orientated technology, based upon open standards (Technical Architecture)
Accounting Office has all the accounting features you need (Accounting Features) and if you want additional detail, browse through this section (General Information)
