Re: multi-db vs. data warehouse

Hi, Nausikaa. Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, the legacy systems must remain in place until they are gradually (if ever) phased out. There's a whole bunch of functionality that I don't want to have to recreate in those systems (POS, inventory/accounting, products, etc.). I just want to b

Thanks for everyone's feedback. I think it's time to just give it a whirl and see what happens. @Joshua: "With my personal experience I would go with an ETL and copy the desired data directly into your ordering system." I think that's the approach I'm going to take. @David: Thanks for the li

2011-08-23 Thread Tony Schmidt

2011-08-23 Thread Tony Schmidt
Thanks, Reinout. I wound up creating a custom "getter" filter so I could do {{ MYDICT| get:myform.somefiled.value }} - which I'm surprised isn't a built-in, actually. But I think your suggestion is a good alternative. Tony On Aug 23, 1:40 pm, Reinout van Rees wrote: >
