Introduction

This site is designed to be a collaborative resource that provides information on all things related to the Sage Accpac SDK and development. By offering this site as a Wiki, we hope to not only provide you (Development Partner Program members) with information to assist in the development of your projects but also to work with you to improve the quality of information offered.

As such we hope that you, our readers, will also become Wiki contributors and build on the collaborative spirit of peer review. This in turn will allow all DPP members to utilize a comprehensive repository of developer knowledge that will help all of us complete our projects faster and with a higher level of quality.

Editing Pages

The ability for everyone within the DPP community to edit and create pages is the core reason for using the Wiki format. We would love to hear your insight into topics that we have created already or for you to alert to us to any interesting topics relating to the Accpac SDK. When considering editing or adding a new page, just follow these steps:

1. Do a search to make sure the page has not already been created
2. If the page exists you can add new content by clicking "edit" at the top or click "discussion" to add comments. (Note: Pages in the "Documenation" namespace can only be edited by admin. But you can still add comments to the associated "discussion" page.)
3. If it doesn't exist, create the page using one of the forms below and add the content that you can contribute.
