Press Release Summary: It is always a good advise to adopt procedures and
functionality available in out-of-the-box version of any ERP application, including
SB1

Press Release Body: It is always a good advise to adopt procedures and functionality
available in out-of-the-box version of any ERP application, including SB1, however
it is common, when standard logic doesn't allow to automate unique business
processes, in this case you have to program modified logic in Software Development
Kit. Let's review SDK in the format of this small article:
1. Programming Language and IDE. You can use either VB or C#.Net and Microsoft
Visual Studio will be your tool, assuming that you are on Windows and MS SQL Server
platforms. Generic C# programmers are available on the market, however it is
recommended to consider contracting certified SB1 SDK developer, who has expertise
in B1 objects structure and technical side of business logic

2. SDK integrations. Before considering changing existing or adding new screens to
SB1, try to design your customization just to integrate external application. This
is good example - imagine, that you have legacy Sales Order Processing system, then
when order is ready to be sent over to SB1, deploy SDK programming to create AR
Invoice or Sales Order in SAP Business One. If implementing integration logic, try
not to communicate with SB1 in real time mode (as if you are uploading 50 objects in
one minute from 50 SB1 users), instead try to implement batch upload custom logic.
Batch upload logic and SDK programming is common in Barcoding scenarios

3. Implementation with custom add-ons. If you plan to launch SB1 in production,
please budget some time for custom tables historical data conversion, here as you
can expect you can not use such nice tools as Work Bench to move data in
