Dear Steve and All, > Hey, Phil, not true. Just a different skill set. A skill set more similar to mine than yours. Except I don't have XML, Flash or Delphi experience. I have some other experience though ;) Each one have their own skills. I developed mine as needed. Computers are a passion of mine and today, although I use computers as a secondary part in my profession (I am a International Sales Manager) they are still a big deal in my life. I usually use those to help the companies to develop their computer side and to improve the Company's efficiency. * I can tell by the Borland C note that you are from my days, Rom! Was Borland the best by far or what?!! I started in the computers at the age of 11, when I got my first commodore and a MSX. then I went to the Amiga and then at the same time to PCs. I started programming basic and logo in the MSX. I got my first job programming Borland C developing PDA like devices to the police of my country (I was 17 in that time). Then I become passionate with Borland C and DOS. Borland C is extremely powerful and I still recompile some of my old stuff just for fun using Dos Box and FreeDOS some times. I am no computer genius but I can make it work :D and the best of all: I have fun doing it. As it is for me know a lot of fun doing this project with you guys.

Dear Steve, Man, you are very old :-). I was born in 10 of may of 1974, being 30 today. I had a Brazilian version of MSX from a company called Gradiente here in Brazil that I bought. Below is the link. It is in Brazilian Portuguese though :D http://www.mci.org.br/micro/outros/expert.html I still have both computers around and working fine. I can tell you that they never did a game like Elite for MSX again. Well, those things are for old people like us I presume. but I can tell you that for sure those old times were far too good.

Hello, I am working on webERP, I downloaded & installed it on my system, it works fine. But I need to integrate an existing storefront in this system or would like webERP to act as a catalog for ordering online. What that storefront would be doing is very simple, webERP will handle all the transaction, authentication, cart system etc & storefront will only display the products which any user could browse but to order any of them he must log-in & order. Now my question is how could I do to it in webERP ? does anyone have any idea ? or on the other hand, I would say how could I display the categories & products using (as a catalog) using WebERP ?

Go to system setup - make a new login account with the permission set to customer logon only. Enter the customer code and branch code to which the goods ordered are to be sent. A login with this name will reveal only two options - account inquiry and place an order. The place an order still shows the quick entry grid by default (we should change this) but the search parts button changes this to allow selection of a category to browse parts by.

Phil can correct me if I get anything incorrect here. It kind of depends on whether you need customer access for ordering or a pretty web storefront for advertising, selling, ordering and paying. webERP, to the best of my knowledge, is not setup to be a storefront, it is an accounting/business/ERP system so the way the customer is going to see the products is the same as the users in the company see them internally. What webERP does already give you is a common database for storage of products and orders. It has mechanisms to create and access orders. It has authentication. Plus creating the web orders directly in webERP means they are ready to move through all the various accounting without any double work and interfacing being necessary. If a nice storefront is needed then that is a separate beast. You would need to either: 1) Enhance webERP to present a nice web store front, display product and organize this customer site in the ways that are appealing. 2) About the same mission as 1 but you take an existing store front and combine it with webERP. However, I doubt there is any cost effective solution out there that provides both full accounting/erp system and fully functional storefront so whichever system you used you would need to do the work explained above anyway. In my opinion you want to go with webERP because it's technology and design make it easier to combine a storefront with it than other systems. Hopefully this helps.

Hi, Steve/Phill thanks for your comments and help. Sorry for not replying immediately as I was trying to make store flow the way I would like it to function. I hope looking at store will help convey better than I could express in words.

Hi Meraj, I took a good look around your entire website. Couldn't find Vector SOHO in software though. Here are a couple of comments to make a good site better. 1) The front page forces the customer to select a store section. It would be better for the customer to come right into that main menu and to put all the text info on the "front page" into the area underneath on that menu page. That would then become the "front page"/Home page. It would come up again when the customer clicked on Home instead of home putting them into software ejecting them from the menu. 2) Clicking on store front actually puts you straight into software. Should there not be a store front introduction that appears in the area below the menu when they choose store front? After they get into the store then they could select one of the section in the second store front menu. 3) I would suggest changing "Store Front" to "Store", "Catalog", "Shopping" or "Products". The term "Store Front" is mostly used on the inside technically. Users/customers may not like that term as much. Possibly some use it but I haven't seen or noticed. 4) When I look at the site in Mozilla I get all kinds of mysql warning messages. These are just some suggestions to make something good even better. It's all just from my opinion too but maybe it helps. Was the site custom done by somebody or is it produced through a generator store front type software? Here is how I would do mesh the webERP customer accounts and orders. 1) You could use the facilities of webERP for customers logging in and ordering to a certain extent. What you will need in addition is to give the customers a way to create an account with the necessary information. As it stands the administrator setup area in webERP is where this is done but you done want customers to have full access to that area. So, you could take the code from the user setup in webERP and modify it so that customers can create their accounts. You would make it so they always get customer access and nothing else plus you may want to add some info that you or the web store need in addition to what webERP has. Possibly credit card info or something. This is all assuming customers create their own accounts. If they call in and you set them up then disregard this part. It does make it much more difficult for customers if they have to so that though. If you want time to approve them then when they create their account you could set them to blocked, inactive or whatever and then after you take a look at their info then you unblock them at which time they can then shop. In the process of copying and changing the webERP user setup I would change it to have the website style/appearance. 2) Copy the webERP login script and modify to have the style of the website. This copied and modified page is what the customers will see but it will do the same as the webERP login. I would probably modify it to only accept customers and no other users who would have more access. That's just added security to prevent the small chance of anybody hacking into your accounting system. 3) Copy the webERP order entry script and modify to work appropriately for customers and to have only the fields and functions necessary for them to use. webERP probably already does this but if not, you may need to modify that copied script to only display and create orders for that customer. You don't want them seeing and changing other customer's information. 4) I think there is a customer account section/script too. Copy and modify this to appear like the website. 5) If you want to go even further then you should have an add to order button with each product. When they click it the code would add a new order line to their order. If it is the first one then possibly you tell them to create an order first or create it automatically and get them to fill out the particulars when they want to submit it. I think that accomplishes everything you need and in the easiest way. Keep in mind that as far as I understand you can use the webERP code for your own site but you can't use that code if you are going to sell it. In other words you can't take the code, put it into your store front package and then sell your store front package to others. It can be used but not redistributed. Plus you should display a credit to webERP. In a corner of the modified webERP pages you could have something like "Powered by webERP accounting software" and a link so they can click to get to the webERP site. It would really help all of us if you could do that as well. The more people know, the better for all of us including yourself ;) Also, if you want, it could be a big bonus to webERP if you offered the copied and modified scripts. We may be able to use it to build in a store front in the future with credit to you of course ;) I knew this message was going to take some time in order to respond thoroughly and that's why it took me a while to respond. Hopefully this all helps...

I had an Acorn Electron PC - I was 18 I think - a cut down BBC = computer, then a few years later a Sinclar QL - I still have 2 of = these!!

Had a Pascal = compiler for the QL too. Only played with little things though. Wrote my first General ledger on the QL with SuperBasic in my 20s. The I got into MS Access and wrote quite a few MS Access databases = for companies I worked for, finally I wrote a complete accounting system = upon which webERP is based on the best bits of. http://www.dux.co.nz/LogicWorks/homepage.htm I then converted this to use MS SQL with logic in stored procedures = with full MRP.

This is all very interesting history. See, I didn't even realize that = webERP evolved from so many steps along the way. I mean, it makes sense = though.
