I ultimately work for Infor. So behave. ;) If I had the choice I would always go through the published API where possible, because you can never be 100% sure that you are doing everything that needs to be done by hitting the raw tables. And in the event of data issues at least you can say "well, I used their API ...". And log everything to assist in that. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/1374222161.3414.140661257456129.40425...@webmail.messagingengine.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
