I have installed Compiere with Oracle and with Daffodil. I like Compiere very much. I have some ideas about how to go about setting up consulting and software development services, but first I have some questions:
1. Is there a content manager for Compiere? I would like my users to be able to use Compiere to update their website but I don't see where they can enter content.
2. Project manager/time management -- is there a project to track projects within Compiere? I would like my users to be able to enter work hours against projects so they can bill time for services.
3. I want to set up a slimmed down version of Compiere to make it a little simpler to use. I am hoping to get users who are using QuickBooks to upgrade to Compiere, but they are used to simpler interfaces and fewer options. Compiere may seem like overkill for them, but if they are distributing products via the web, or eBay, or Amazon, I think they could find Compiere to be a much better tool. Any thoughts on audience for Compiere in this regard? what I mean is, has anyone had much luck selling to smaller businesses who already use an accounting product such as QuickBOoks? Also, I could just use the QuickBooks SDK to pull out its data into csv files to import into Compiere, right?
4. Where are the pages to modify for the Compiere web system? How do I dig into that code so I can change its look and feel? Any pointers on how to include a content manager with the web site/web store?
My apologies if these questions are not in the correct forum. I have downloaded the documentation from Compiere, by the way. 884 pages!
P.S. THANK YOU FOR COMPILO!
