Before doing extensive work you may want to check with Phil.  With the
Multilanguage going on almost all of the files have some sort of changes
being done to them.

Sounds like the two biggest challenges are:

1) Getting to a place of one common DBMS.  Personally, I would choose mysql
because you get two benefits:  You can then offer postgres and mysql
versions of your product and the two products would then be much better and
easier to integrate. I guess you could move webERP onto postgres but it
wouldn't be my first choice.

2) Identifying all of the common database tables and seeing how they vary
from one product to another.  If there are parts where it varies
substantially then deciding whether to bring it to one common ground or have
some duplication and providing interfaces between.  Sort of an automated
referential integrity thing but this is probably not that wise.  I doubt the
common tables will present that great a challenge in combining.

Also, it would be good to identify which operations they have in common to
figure out the best way to resolve it so one does not negatively affect the
other.

Just some thinking out loud...

One thing is for sure.  Combining both products would be a more powerful all
round solution ;)  Combining teams makes all of us much more powerful as
well.

entire system and indeed the CRM functionality runs from it so perhaps the
first issue i have is now to over come the integration of the two address
books.
