PHPRunner General questions

Hi! I've been looking for a PHP code generator that would fit my needs.
I am planning to develop a ERP system for SMEs. I already have the business logic. I just want to make a really informed decision as to which tool can help me. Pardon me if I post stupid questions. <img src='https://asprunner.com/forums/file.php?topicimage=1&fieldname=question&id=17963&image=1&table=forumtopics' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

  1. Are the codes fully-customizable?

  • Would it be possible to generate the source code from PHPRunner then edit and modify it afterwards using an IDE, say Zend Studio or NetBeans?
  • I would like to customize the software

  1. Is CSS fully supported?
  2. PDF reporting

  • Is this supported? Is it WYSIWYG type of reports? I will be creating reports i.e. Income Statement, Invoice

  1. Simultaneous DB access / Internal Locking

  • Since an ERP can have multiple users accessing it simultaenously, is there way in PHPRunner to do this database locking to maintain data integrity? Or should I just do it in SQL-level

  1. I am planning to sell the software, I already have potential clients.

  • Can I hide the source code when I deploy it to my client's servers?
  • Or would any guy with basic PHP knowledge be able to access my code?
  • Or would I need to buy and install PHPRunner to each of my client's server for this to work?

  1. Cloud computing

  • Is PHPRunner's framework scalable enough for cloud computing? I mean accessing it via the Internet and not the LAN
    That's it for now. I apologize for the many questions.
    Looking forward.

    Yes, PHPRunner generates full PHP source code that can be modified according to your needs.

  1. Is CSS fully supported?
    Yes. Version 6 comes with Style Editor that makes customizing visual appearance a snap
  2. PDF reporting

  • Is this supported? Is it WYSIWYG type of reports? I will be creating reports i.e. Income Statement, Invoice
    Yes, View/Print pages can be exported to PDF. Layout can be modified in Visual Editor.

  • Since an ERP can have multiple users accessing it simultaenously, is there way in PHPRunner to do this database locking to maintain data integrity? Or should I just do it in SQL-level
    PHP applications are multi-access by default. PHPRunner also provides record locking capability that prevents several users from editing the same record at the same time.

  1. I am planning to sell the software, I already have potential clients.

  • Can I hide the source code when I deploy it to my client's servers?

    You can explore PHP encoding options provided by third party software like Zend Encoder or ionCube.

    All PHPRunner apps are Internet-ready.
