Yes, that's how Catalog Manager and other busness UIs work. Downlaod the Partner SDK and look at the code there and see how it was done.

There are three ways to setup developer environments:

- Distributed

- Central

- Mixed (Central and Distributed)

In your case you may want to setup your profiles database on a remote SQL Server then point all of your developer systems profiles connection string to the remote server.

When I have some time later I will blog about this :).

Good luck,

I want to setup development environment for commerce server where multiple developers can code for single commerce server. For this, I have installed Commerce Server on one machine where i have created some custom profiles now i want to access these profiles on different machine of developers using asp.net. If possible please provide useful link for this problem. Thanks in Advance.

Do you mean using Customer and Order Manager? What method are you using to get this data? If you are using the UI then select Profiles from Views then select “User Object” form Look in then select Data Created from Look for and finally enter a date that you know is very early like 1/1/1900.

I would be careful this type of data might be to large you should try and get pageable results.

One last thing the Web Service is set by default to return only 500 records anything more and you might see timeout issues.

Yes there is a method called GetAuthorizedTasks. This method returns a DataSet object that describes the tasks that the current user is authorized to perform in the catalog system.

Good luck,
