A program interface which provides access from a business management application to an accounting application to share account information. As described in illustrative embodiments, the system includes an interface module to instantiate and invoke an interface from the business management application to generate an accounting record from an opportunity or prospect record in the business management application. Thus, the accounting record is generated through the interface from the business management application to eliminate the need for duplicate data entry in the accounting application.

Program interface for a business management application and an accounting application

A system is disclosed for processing billable activities. The system includes a scheduling component configured to support creation of a plurality of activity records. A sub-set of the activity records are designated as being associated with billable activity. The system also includes an accounting component for receiving information based on the sub-set of the activity records. The information is transmitted from the scheduling component to the accounting component.

Billable activity processing

A system and method for testing the implementation of a remote access protocol in network servers and/or clients goes through test cases with different server-client configuration combinations in an automated and distributed process. The testing system includes at least one test controller, a client pool, a server pool, and a database that maintains the test cases to be tested. Servers and clients participating in the distributed testing are registered with the test controller, which matches a server with a client based on their configuration capabilities and/or other factors. Test cases selected from the database are then assigned to the server-client pair for execution. For each assigned test case, the client assumes the client configuration of that case and calls the server to establish a connection under the remote access protocol, and the server assumes the server configuration test results for the executed test cases are stored for monitoring and generating reports.

System uses test controller to match different combination configuration capabilities of servers and clients and assign test cases for implementing distributed testing
