How to Install an Everest SDK
Everest Software created several business software packages, including Everest ERP, Everest e-Commerce and Everest CRM Studio. In addition, Everest distributes a software development kit, or SDK, to customize screens and reports in the ERP system. The Everest SDK used to be difficult to install, but the process has been simplified and automated in newer versions like 3.0 and above. Note that you must not be in “Interactive User” mode, and must be logged into the server and into Everest with a valid user ID and password. Configure COM+ component for Everest to use a valid Windows user account, instead.
