How to use the LN Studio for Baan IV

In general, creating BIDs and BIIs for Baan IV is similar to creating BIDs and BIIs for LN. However, take into account that Baan IV technology differs from LN technology.

For example:

• No DALs are available. Therefore, ensure all required business logic is included in BII hooks or in libraries that are invoked from BII hooks.
• Data types differ. For example, in Baan IV the UTC data type is unavailable. Separate date and time columns are used instead of a single UTC column. To map UTC attributes to date and time columns, create ‘on set’ and ‘on get’ hooks.
• There is no single DAL script that encapsulates the data for a table. Therefore, you probably must invoke the ShowAndPublish<Verb>BOD from multiple locations in the application.

In Enterprise Server, you can view existing business objects in the Business Objects (ttadv7500m000) session. In Baan IV this session is unavailable. To delete or expire generated business objects, you must use LN Studio.
