| 2010-02-16 21:10 <ZeroForce> Hey all - so I'm new to the whole ERP thing and after reviewing a bunch of websites and reviews have decided to try tryton to cut my teeth | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:10 <ZeroForce> Any recommendations for how to get started? | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:10 <ZeroForce> I thought a good start would be stock room management and seeing if I could set something up that allowed me to "build" and "unbuild" products | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:15 <ZeroForce> I've currently got NESO installed and am starting with that | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:15 <yangoon> ZeroForce: hi | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:16 <yangoon> ZeroForce: good choice for the beginning | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:19 <ZeroForce> yangoon: hi, Thanks | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:20 <ZeroForce> I don't suppose there are any downloadable "Sample Simple Company" databases | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:21 <yangoon> you can download the demo database | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:21 <ZeroForce> Something that might represent some typical company business models | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:21 <ZeroForce> Is the demo database big? | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:22 <ZeroForce> I'm trying not start somewhat clean, but starting from nothing is kind of painful.... | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:22 <ZeroForce> Hmm, can I upload contacts from say Outlook or Google Contacts to seed my Parties? | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:23 <yangoon> ZeroForce: http://demo.tryton.org/~demo1_4/ http://demo.tryton.org/~demo1_2/ http://demo.tryton.org/~demo1_0/ | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:23 <ZeroForce> 5MB sounds about right | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:24 <ZeroForce> Can Neso open that? | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:24 -!- tekknokrat(~gthielebe@dslb-188-103-022-099.pools.arcor-ip.net) has joined #tryton | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:24 <yangoon> ZeroForce: but those are postgresql dumps, won't work with neso | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:25 <ZeroForce> Ahh | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:25 <yangoon> ZeroForce: if you take a look at the demo, you will have setup a testing environment quite quick | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:25 <ZeroForce> Neso is SQLite I assume | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:25 <yangoon> ZeroForce: or just play on the demo | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:25 <yangoon> ZeroForce: right | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:26 <ZeroForce> Well I'm hoping to build a proof of concept for a customer | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:26 <ZeroForce> They are currently on PeachTree | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:26 <ZeroForce> (I'm in the US) | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:27 <ZeroForce> They are a small firm (under 10 employees), But there are several problems they are facing that it seems like an ERP like Tryton would be well suited to solve (mostly related to stock and inventory management) | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:28 <ZeroForce> One of the main problems is they have long lead times on some of their parts and their current inventory process isn't working to keep their systems up to date | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:30 <ZeroForce> Anyway - I've not used an ERP before, but as I was listening to their description of what they'd like to see work better - what I've heard about ERP systems just seemed to scream to be the answer :) | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:35 <ZeroForce> How would you recommend entering in something like "metal washers"? | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:36 <ZeroForce> It's a consumable, does it go into Products? | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:36 <ZeroForce> Or is there a different Object type for "Parts" | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:37 <yangoon> ZeroForce: if you sell it and want to have stock management it is a product | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:39 <ZeroForce> We don't sell it, but we use it in the construction of a product | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:40 <ZeroForce> We need to know when we're low so we can order more | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:41 <yangoon> ZeroForce: what you need is probably MRP | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:41 <ZeroForce> ? | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:42 <yangoon> there is currrently not yet a module for it | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:42 <ZeroForce> ooooohhhhh | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:43 <ZeroForce> Manufacturing Resource Planning? | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:43 <yangoon> yes | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:44 <ZeroForce> I hate to ask, but any suggestions? | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:44 <ZeroForce> As I mentioned, it's a small firm | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:45 <ZeroForce> They essentially take a bunch of parts and build three main products | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:45 <ZeroForce> Those three products can be sold individually or combined into different products | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:45 <ZeroForce> s/into/to make/ | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:46 <ZeroForce> They primarily have a stockroom, a design lab, and a production build area | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:51 <vengfulsquirrel> There is functionality to automatically create purchase orders when stock numbers drop below a certain level. | ||
| 2010-02-16 21:52 <ZeroForce> vengfulsquirrel: And that's on the products right | ||
