Sample Application

Download the Sample Sales PowerBuilder application ZIP file.
Extract the contents to a local folder on your system and ensure all files are fully unzipped before proceeding to the next step.

SQL Anywhere Database

After extracting the provided package, navigate to the Database folder and locate the AppeonSample_VG.db file, which will be used to set up the SQL Anywhere database.

• Select the SQL Anywhere and click Finish
• Enter NovalysSample as the Data Source Name.
• On Login Tab, enter credentials: User ID: dba, Password: sql
• Under the Action section Select "Start and connect database on this computer" and browse the database file AppeonSample_VG.db.
• Go to ODBC tab and Click Test Connection to verify successful connectivity.

Run the application

Locate the executable file of the Sales PowerBuilder application in the extracted folder.
Double-click the executable file (sales_application_demo.exe) to launch the application.
Ensure the application opens successfully and authenticate with the credentials (admin/pwd) or with the current windows account.
