Re: [webERP-users] Contracts Module

[rfthomas <rf...@as...>]

We would be pleased to help in refining this area.  There might be mechanisms
already existing webERP to handle some of the areas that are specific to
contracts/projects.

We will write up our thoughts with respect to projects.  We have
experimented with some project management software written in PHP that
mimics much of the functionality of MICROSOFT's PROJECT application.

One requirement is that we need to be able to ship material to the customer
creating packing slips and charging the items against the contract/project. 
Many of the items that we sell are serialized/lot numbered and we need to
track by serial/lot number.  Within the current webERP, we could possibly
set-up a customer that is the contract/project with the shipping information
being that of the customer.  Sales orders would then be created initially
outside the Contracts Module for the items and shipments/invoices made with
the charges being accrued against the contract/project.

The customer is not billed based on shipments but rather per the terms of
the contract.  We do understand how to accomplish such using webERP.

We have been experimenting with the Contract module and several of the
features described in the webERP Manual in the section Contract Costing do
not appear to have been implemented.  Specifically entering supplier
charges.
