I've been reading this with a lot of interest as well and just wondering if
I should jump in. Most of you seem to be software developers. For the past
12 years the shops I've been at run canned ERP systems. I try to learn new
things as much as possible and implement them. The problem is, do you break
the standard of the menu system of the ERP system and start developing
applications for the web? You can't GUIize the whole ERP system. Then you
have the confusion of the users. Ok I run the invoice inquiry from green
screen but the order inquiry is in browser where do I run the inventory
report from, I lost the link to the customer inquiry and so on. So do you
start throwing out mixed applications just to start moving things to the
browser when you know that your ERP system may come in and do everything
totally different in a couple of years. If the software was home grown this
might be a easier decision but with every upgrade it may erase all the
effort you put in. I want to learn PHP but currently I can't implement it
because it would be outside our ERP system standards and how everyone wants
it to be contained "inside the system". J
