I am trying to create a KSync event for when an Opportunity is inserted into the db. Can anyone point me in the right direction here? Not sure how to do this..

Hi Steve, what version of SLX is this for (just trying to see if Process Orchestration would work, brain-dead easy for that sort of thing, but only for 7.5)

I can recommend a good book

PO workflows are Windows Workflow projects that you build in VS2008 with SalesLogix assemblies referenced. Then you can target SalesLogix entities and have tasks run with a reference to the entity that kicked off the workflow.

There are a couple of XML files - ProcessLib.xml and ProcessStart.xml - that you need to modify to get your workflow registered into the ProcessHost and then it should kick off as soon as a change (or new record) happens.

Cheers,

Stephen

Steve, if you don't want to go down the Process Orchestration route, TaskCentre would be a good alternative.

Absolutely, Task Centre is a great alternative and I am on that band-wagon.

One problem is that if you are trying to replace an existing KS installation, TC might not go down too well whereas PO can more easily go in alongside KS (if it fits the requirement).
