SMART Launcher allows you to run different databases with correct NAV Classic / RTC client. When you have a big amount of databases with different versions it becomes a real pain to remember the version, build and path to the NAV client for each database. SMART Launcher solves this problem. All you need is set patches to your NAV clients and map database versions to the clients (you can see this settings on the screenshot). After these simple settings you can run each database from the system tray in few mouse clicks. Database version is displayed just by pointing the mouse cursor on database or company (you can see "60220" on the screenshot).
Additional benefits:
- possibility to manage access to databases: grant / deny SQL dbo role and NAV SUPER role for user;
- possibility to add / remove SQL trigger which forbids database conversion;
For the full list of features please read Help topic in the application settings.
New “Projects” menu item – splits available databases not by SQL servers, but by keywords. Keyword is simply searched as a substring in a database name, case sensitive. Keyword can be specified in the config file (no GUI for now) using the following construct:
<Keywords><Keyword Value="Cronus" /><Keyword Value="Ext" /><Keyword Value="Int" /></Keywords>
New “Clients” menu item – contains links to launch DevEnv or RTC clients for all builds available.
