— Does Braided Matrix provide support to 4th Quarter® end-users?
We encourage end-users to support their local 4Q Developers. 4Q Developers main focus is on customizing, installation, and support of computer systems for specific industries. They tend to be more versed in the situations, problems, and the needs of their target markets. End-user support is also always available through Objective Systems. Contact us for details.
Yes. Developer support is the job that we are retained to provide most often. 4th Quarter developer support, available to users who have licensed 4th Quarter source code, includes project design and management, design, consultation, training and custom programming.
When a custom system is developed based on 4th Quarter we are often called in to write those dozen or fewer elements of code that are required to link the core accounting functions with those functions supported by the user's own custom application. We have numerous developer notes on how to perform this integration and can easily explain to you the typical costs and responsibilities that are involved. Please call or write for details.
Yes. On-site support is available on a contract basis through Objective Systems. Objective Systems offers training, IT consulting, and 4Q customization, and custom database programming.
