Heath	Monday 29 December 2008 4:26:36 am Hello Anita, It seems like some software [1] has been created to fill the needs of sugarcrm and ezpublish projects. While others were planning together to create additional functional works.

Anita H	Monday 29 December 2008 7:04:19 am Thanks a lot, Heath. I had a look on the Bridge from buildcms. Then I was struggeling with different ideas whether an integration should be done - from ez Publish to sugar or sugar to ez Publish and/or - with library or directly on DB level, eg. with triggers However, as I just started with sugar (actually today) and still am a newbe to ez Publish I'll need to put in more thoughts. Anyhow if you've got an advise I'm more than happy. What I want to achieve: - custom classes brought up in ez Publish, e.g a product, belong to a contact. - the contact administration I'd like to do in sugarCRM - therefore I would like to push the instances of my ezPublish classes into the sugarCRM and therein link it with the respective contact (one contact could have many products) The product information in sugar is only meant for reading purposes (one way pushing data: always from ez Publish -> sugar - However, having said that I could easily think about a full integration as a phase two... So, not sure whether I succeeded in making clear what I wonna achieve but would be happy to receive any thought, advise, idea, example.... Thanks a lot Anita
Heath	Monday 29 December 2008 7:08:07 am I just now noticed to find a project which also provides related SugarCRM features. <i>http://projects.ez.no/nmsugarsoap http://svn.projects.ez.no/nmsugarsoap/trunk/</i> The above extension provides a simple contact datatype which provides a relation list of sugar crm contacts and stores a selection of one or many. This datatype can be added to any class like product, which sounded like part of what you were looking to add to your ez installation. (eZ <- Sugar) One might consider creating a library which provides for reading of information via soap from sugar. (eZ -> Sugar) I don't know offhand if their soap api provides for writing information if so you might just want to go with soap for writes as well to sugar. (Sugar <- eZ) I would avoid sql when working with the eZ db and use the ez php api instead to fetch information through php say from a sugar module.

/dev/null	Monday 29 December 2008 7:44:42 am Some development required in any case to end up with the polished solution you describe even using the available software solutions as a basis. eZpedia community documentation project: http://ezpedia.org
Anita H	Monday 29 December 2008 7:57:36 am sounds like a good starting point;-), downloaded the soap interface... Thanks a lot for your support, Heath. Will digg into it and ok, drop the idea of triggers ;-) ... cheers Anita
