Is there a future feature list and/or road map with projection dates available? We currently use this app in our office and have 2 clients that are in demo mode with web-erp. Just wondering what to look forward to. Thanks |

Its tough to nail anyone down to a completion date .. least of all me ... on a project like this. I would dearly love the system to have the following Work orders - usage variances Master Schedule and MRP Capacity planning Warehouse management A number of reports and perhaps graphical output would also be good. However, other contributors have other ideas and I am happy to incorporate their ideas in too. My wish list starts seeing webERP grow into a real force in ERP software - much of my efforts are therefore in support and getting others involved. My own capacity to drive these functionality aims forward is therefore displaced somewhat.

I'm not sure that graphical output is necessary in the base. It is necessary, however, to have presentable reports. There is a real challenge in this area. To pdf or not. I'm not real keen on pdf. It's not readily extractable and proprietary. And of course I don't trust Adobe with its over inflated $600 products and it's many products that should be one product. A specialty of mine is reporting and imaging as I work in a lead capacity for a large "outsourcing" imaging company some years back that did microfiche, (laser) printing, storage, etc, for larger scale companies like banks, government, etc. I think I have or could do a decent report engine but it would require some work and help because I have to make a living too ;) What html does not do and what a good reporting engine does need to do is be positional. That is the key to reporting. That and an easy interface ;) Steve ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daintrees" <p.d...@pa...> To: <web...@li...> Sent: Friday, September 10, 2004 5:28 PM Subject: Re: [Web-erp-developers] Feature List/Road Map > Its tough to nail anyone down to a completion date .. least of all me ... on > a project like this. > > I would dearly love the system to have the following > > Work orders - usage variances > Master Schedule and MRP > Capacity planning > Warehouse management > > A number of reports and perhaps graphical output would also be good. > However, other contributors have other ideas and I am happy to incorporate > their ideas in too.

I am a BIG fan of PDF - compact, open spec and abundant 3rd party tools. Precise positioning - free reading using a multitude of readers. Not such a fan of such large peices of software to read them. However, everyone has a pdf reader they are as widely used almost as a web-browser. You've had quite a chequered history Steve working for was it Great Plains (or one of those big accounting software vendors) previously and now a major imaging company. I am thinking really only perhaps some comparative graphing and KPI reporting perhaps on order fill, stock turnover, gross profit by salesman, product category etc etc. I see this as pdf based all using the existing class we are currently using. I am a little concerned about the multi-language capability of this class. I will not re-write these reports a 3rd time!

Well, there you go. I guess I haven't revisited the PDF situation lately. That's good to know. The chequered history dates back about 20 years. In chronological order: Musicomp - my own first company which was an online BBS for musicians - I failed miserably! Honeywell Supply and Services Canada - Pension, Family bonus, etc. Customs and Excise Canada (now consolidated with Taxation under a different name) - awesome background check, fingerprinting, briefing and debriefing was the coolest part ;) Rio Algom - mining company. That was different and interesting xxxx (University) - doing admin systems xxxx (Imaging Company) - microfiche, laser printing, doc imaging, data warehousing, etc. for large corporations. Large scale with MICR cheque codes, printed codes for machine sorting into envelopes, etc. xxxx (ERP Software Company) - one of the main well-known world-wide mid-range offerings I'm not even sure why but I'm kind of paranoid about putting too much recently about myself on the web hence the xxxx. Even though it might look like it, I've never been fired! Butted heads quite a bit with two managers over the years though. Rio Algom shutdown their entire Elliot Lake operation so all of us were gone. I was let go once when they consolidated to another country and I did not want to move to another position in another country. For the past 10+ years I've also worked with and without partners in our own companies. Some of that time I was also employed by some of the companies on the list. Guess I have too much time on my hands if I'm typing all this. I better do some more Multilanguage scripts!

Phil, someone (I think Dick) had mentioned an area that could be created for webERP for additions others may have an interest in. This is one of those really cool things that would be nice to have readily seen in a special area. Is there any possibility of creating such an area? What I see is that we're talking about these cool graphs now but this discussion will get buried in a tremendous amount of discussion on this list so that everyone who is not subscribed and everyone in the future will never know about this neat chart possibility for webERP.

I guess we are all focused on improving webERP but I must say I am enjoying getting to know people with like minds too. Thanks for this Steve. I guess if you've had to sign some of these extraoridinary restraint of trade employment agreements it pays to be a little cagey about the info you give out. I hope Canada is not as litigious as the US.
