Retrieving the database structure of a register

To generate the various end-points Burti API relies on the database structure that Standard ERP exposes via the Export/import Format report in its' Technics module.

When the report is run without specifying a register code, it will dump the database definitions of all the registers in the database. These are for example Invoices, Sales Orders, Deliveries and such.

You will need to look up the register(-s) that you wish to expose via the API in this report and then separately export these to a text file.

Example

In this example we show how to retrieve the database structure of the Orders register to use for creating its' API end-point.

Step 1: Enter the keyword "Orders" in the search field of the report

Step 2: Cycling through the search results pin-point the correct register and take note of its' code (ORVc).

Step 3: Reopen to the Report Specification window using the cogwheel menu available in the upper-left hand corner of the window.

Step 4: Enter the register code (ORVc in this example) in the field labeled "Vc (View Code)", set Media to File and press Run to save the definition in a file.
