Re: [SL] Programatically Entering Sales Orders

[Ted O. <te...@on...>]

I've written some scripts to import customer orders and purchase orders, but 
they use the API.  If you don't use the API, then you are bypassing all the 
business rules built into SQL-Ledger.  There are also many validation checks 
done in the API to maintain data integrity.  It may be a little more work 
shelling out and running a script to use the API, but the amount of work you may 
  face fixing data integrity issue may far out weigh the work required on an API 
call.
