Line 11: − + − + − + − Quote from: Dave Premo+ − “I am the primary developer … some history: − I run a small battery company in the US [www.portablepower.com] and have a background as a design engineer. I was very unhappy with the commercial accounting applications out there as I found them to be difficult to adapt to my business and very expensive to operate in a multi-user environment. I wrote several interfaces to integrate my shipping, e-commerce sites, etc. to make my business flow smoothly. − − Enter my search for an open source ERP solution. I first hooked up with webERP and wrote the reportwriter tool for the application. The project manager (in a similar position but earlier in the calendar to me) had a firm control over the architecture and I viewed a much different interface and structure. So I ended up looking for an architecture that I though brought about the flexibility I was looking for and ended up using the admin interface from ZenCart. (I have since completely re-written about 99.9% of the code and ended up building my own architecture) The other option was to branch off of webERP because of the stability of the accounting engine. So off I went in early 2007 to write my own accounting program. “ − − + − Code Sources:+ − Sourceforge – latest release PhreeBooksR3.6RC2 (the excellent new features included in the v3.6 release haven't yet IMHO been fully de-bugged.
