Managing Customization Projects

A customization project is a set of changes to the user interface and functionality of MYOB Advanced. A customization project, described more fully in Customization Project, might include the following:

New custom forms and modifications to existing forms of MYOB Advanced
Extensions for the business logic
Custom reports
Custom application configuration
Additional files that you need for the customization

In MYOB Advanced, you manage customization projects by means of the Customization Projects (SM204505) form. On this form, you can add a new customization project, open a customization project for editing in the Customization Project Editor, publish any number of customization projects, cancel the publication of customization projects, export a customization project as the deployment package, import a customization project from an existing deployment package, and delete a customization project.

Note: In MySQL, the maximum size of one packet that can be transmitted to or from a server is 4MB by default. If you use MySQL and want to manage a customization project with the size that is larger than the default maximum value, you have to increase the max_allowed_packet variable in the server. The largest possible packet size is 1GB.
