Creating Invoices, And Price Quotes etc.
« on: November 09, 2008, 03:07:25 AM »
During my search and posting on a webmail topic I thought I saw in the contribs a package that would allow me to create a price quote, and then invoices and sort of run a business type program for SME in the contribs.

Since I was working on something else I figured I would get back to that sometime.
Now I can't find that program ? Does anyone know what package this may be or what someone could use on SME for giving detailed price quotes or perhaps keeping a database of inventory and pricing, and then turning this into an invoice or an order ? Sort of order processing type package ?

Please advise
Thanks

Perhaps you saw a reference to vTiger, which is a free CRM application.

However, vTiger is serious overkill if you just want to do a few invoices.

Hi,

Thanks, vTiger looks great,but I didn't see anything in contribs. I was sure there was something there, but I can't find it or can't recall where I saw it. I should have bookmarked my reference to it.

Anyhow thanks this looks good. If you know of others I might use on SME I would be happy to know about them too. I may try the vTiger after I review the install requirements a bit.

Thanks

vTiger requires PHP5 to function properly, IIRC.

If you are prepared to brave it with PHP5, then perhaps Simple Invoices would be more appropriate.

Thanks,
I don't think I'll go the PHP5 route, I think Simply Invoices is OK too, but I don't see a good detailed quoting system, I'm sort of wanting the quoting system to have a bit more details for each item / product

I'll keep googling to see if I can find something.
Thanks again for anything you might come across.

There's always the old stand-by: SalesForce.com Personal Edition.

Sql-ledger and ledgersmb are good for that.
