hehe. The freedom of choice ;) - glad it's a community thing -

Looking forward to see it in CVS :)

hmm - I'm looking forward to seeing the Api you created here (or is it
the soap-api/Api.pm ?)

|  login => 'tony', password => 'password' ); our $TRANS =
| $SL_API->start_transaction('add', 'GL');
|
| $TRANS->reference("API TEST1"); $TRANS->description("First test of
| the SL API");
|
| $TRANS->add_debit('1060', 100); #$TRANS->transaction->dump;
| $TRANS->add_credit('3350', 100); #$TRANS->transaction->dump;
|
| $TRANS->post; __END__

| Right now it's about 1:30 in the morning and I need to get to bed.

sleep well :)
