The scheme of CU 80 and 90 needed.

Thank you for the quick answer, Luc.

it's a long story

Yeah, it seems so. The book seems to be a help, but unfortunately I'm too greedy to buy it :roll:
Actually, I will have a job interview soon, and I've heard that they ask questions like "What happens in CU 80?". I need to be ready. So... will dig until get tired

Thank you, mattrax.

Hello kine!

It was funny As I intended, I started to dig into the CU 80. In the beginning I was digging really deep, I checked all the unknown fields and functions that I met in the code... But after some time I've got tired and find myself only on PostJobContractLine line of code, that is less that one third of all code in CU80. Then I realized that if I want to finish before the end of universe, I need to be more relaxed and less in-detail. So the remaining part of CU I just scrolled down to identify what happens in general.

And are you sure that they expect answer like "in CU 80 there is function this and this and func1 is doing this and func2 is doing that..." or just "in CU 80 sales documents are posted..."...

I think they expect me to start from the second variant you mentioned, and give more details about what entries are created during the CU 80 run. Think they expect something like the following:

In CU 80 sales documents are posted.
First of all the program tests everything (like customer is not blocked, all neseccary fields are filled).
Then it creates posted headers.
Then, if there are lines with type "Resource" of "FA", it creates Job, Res, or FA entries. If line type is "Item", it creates ILE entry (by calling appropriate posting routine).
Then posted lines are created;
Then G/L and VAT entries are created by creating gen journal lines and posting them.
Then Customer Ledger Entries are created.
Then old sales lines and header are modified or deleted;
Then Inventory Adjustment takes place if needed.
The last thing that CU80 does is update Analysis View.

BTW, how to become real consultant, if I am just a developer, who can just read technical specs and code according to them?
My first step is to switch to the firm that has its own consultants, and see what they are and what they need to be. My current firm workes as partner for the partners, and we have not own consultants at all.

Hello David!

I think that step one is to realize that it is not free in terms of money or time. You say you wont pay for learning materials. How stupid is that. Marks book may have saved you many many hours of study, yet the cost would be less than an hour of your lost time.

Sorry for misleading you, I actually already spent some money on education purposes, mean I passed three NAV exams by my own costs. I said that I wont pay for the book because I did not know if it is really what I need (in the previous posts it sounded like "you can try this, but I am not sure it will fit you need"). Now, when you confirmed that that book will be helpful for me - I will most likely buy it (at least to be able to say "oh, this is the book David Singleton recommended me :roll:" ).

Than you for advise
