Recorder with the PROTHEUS - TOTVS system

The TOTVS Protheus system is widely used by companies, but the IBM Automation Recorder does not work for it, the components are not found.

This makes it unfeasible to automate it with the IBM Automation tool.

I request the implementation in the IBM Automation Recorder, to recognize the system and with that we can automate it with the tool.

    Seria ótimo a possibilidade de capturar o elemento na tela do sistema Protheus.

    I also think this would be great. Something that surprised me is that the recorder wasn't able to detect the application window.

    In Brazil, TOTVS market share is 33% of ERP Systens. In companies with 180 employes the market share is 47%.

    I think import we recognize this kink of software.
