Microsoft Solomon

Microsoft Business Solutions–Solomon is a robust, flexible solution built to meet the needs of project-centric and distribution-driven companies. Its customization and integration tools help you adapt best practices, integrate with other systems, serve customers better, and excel in your industry. It also boosts employee efficiency by providing real-time data access through a Web-based interface.


The PMA interfaces with Microsoft Solomon software which has been enhanced by Automated Options of Spokane, WA.

The primary goal of this interface is to eliminate manual data entry into PMA. The data will be manually entered into the Solomon software and automatically imported into PMA in an ASCII data file. Note that any data that Solomon does not send to PMA will have to be manually entered into PMA.

The interface consists of a formatted ASCII data file that the PMA user can retrieve, any time at their convenience, from the Solomon software, and also can send data to that software from PMA.

Both the import and export data file format will be identical.

We expect that the data going to the Solomon software from PMA will be a one time event, to update their data with the existing database in PMA. After that we expect that the data will only be coming from the Solomon software to PMA.

The format will consist of segments (usually called records in the pre-HIPAA days). Each segment will provide complete information for the subject and will be terminated with a tilde (~) instead of a carriage return/line feed. The data elements within the segment will be delimited with an asterisk (*) except the last element which is delimited by the tilde. Blank data elements indicate no data for that element.
