| 2013-10-16 04:56 <WalterN> lets try installing tryton for my first time | ||
| 2013-10-16 04:57 <WalterN> ACTION holds breath | ||
| 2013-10-16 04:58 <WalterN> its not in the debian repositories? | ||
| 2013-10-16 04:58 <WalterN> oh yeah it is | ||
| 2013-10-16 04:59 <WalterN> what is tryton-neso and tryton-proteus? | ||
| 2013-10-16 05:09 <WalterN> is it generally not a good idea to install tryton-modules-all? | ||
| 2013-10-16 05:19 <plantian> neso = tryton + trytond, proteus is a client library for accessing trytond programmatically | ||
| 2013-10-16 05:19 <plantian> WalterN: I think when you actually start using tryton you will want to only install the moduels you want. For trying it out though it probably does not matter. | ||
| 2013-10-16 05:28 <WalterN> plantian: I'm setting it up for a startup company... | ||
| 2013-10-16 05:29 <WalterN> and I've never used tryton before... heh | ||
| 2013-10-16 05:29 <WalterN> its for a machine shop | ||
| 2013-10-16 14:50 -!- vcardon(~vcardon@LNeuilly-152-23-15-185.w193-252.abo.wanadoo.fr) has left #tryton | ||
| 2013-10-16 16:24 -!- b0r7(~b0r7@p5DD3F957.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) has left #tryton | ||
| 2013-10-16 20:41 <WalterN> plantian: how do I know what modules I want? | ||
| 2013-10-16 20:43 <plantian> WalterN: well some modules are specific to other countries, and then some things you won't need depending on your accounting | ||
| 2013-10-16 20:44 <plantian> WalterN: Do you think you will be writing custom modules? | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:07 <WalterN> plantian: enh, no... at least not for a few years... heh | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:13 <WalterN> plantian: the thing is that the company I joined is a startup machine shop... right now its just me and two other guys who own it. I'm just trying to figure out what to set up on the computer to keep track of everything | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:14 <WalterN> and I dont know what most of these modules do | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:22 <WalterN> suppose I could start here... http://doc.tryton.org/2.8/ | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:22 <WalterN> heh | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:23 <WalterN> are there any that I should stay away from, or any that is highly suggested? | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:32 <b0r7> mhm depends.. i would say start with party,account and sale but it depends on your usecase, there are no modules you should stay away from.. | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:33 <b0r7> each one has a usecase and puropose | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:37 <b0r7> and maybe stock module, note that each has its documentation page: http://doc.tryton.org/2.8/modules/index.html | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:52 <plantian> WalterN, b0r7: I guess the main issue I've had is that uninstalling modules is not that easy and managing the upgrade and configuration of many modules I did not use was difficult for me. | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:52 <plantian> I use mainly the stock and sale modules. | ||
| 2013-10-16 22:52 <plantian> And their extensions. | ||
| 2013-10-16 23:04 <WalterN> hmm | ||
| 2013-10-16 23:04 <WalterN> will it do what quickbooks does? | ||
| 2013-10-16 23:04 <WalterN> I mean | ||
| 2013-10-16 23:04 <WalterN> well | ||
| 2013-10-16 23:05 <WalterN> I donno what I mean... heh.. | ||
| 2013-10-16 23:11 <WalterN> I guess I'm wondering if there is a module or two that would compose of a good replacement to quickbooks | ||
| 2013-10-16 23:22 <b0r7> WalterN: i would say you'll have to give it a try.. basic uses work out of the box .. i'd say.. costumization is apparently not as easy as in (i assume) quickbooks .. as tryton is young and as the website states a framework (to build up on).. disclaimer: i'm new to tryton as well and building a workflow for a friend's company | ||
| 2013-10-16 23:41 <WalterN> yeah | ||
| 2013-10-16 23:41 <WalterN> this stuff is all new to us | ||
| 2013-10-16 23:41 <WalterN> running a business, accounting, owning machines... just trying to figure out stuff |
