Yes, I looked at MERCI. It has the notion of buckets of fungible items, which is exactly what we need. We don't want people to have to check boxes for 100 individual phones when they need that many for a test.
Of course, this being Drupal, it is quite intimidating and has a lot of prereqs. But definitely worth a look. Ben, you suggested a spreadsheet. C'mon. You know the saying: A spreadsheet is never the answer. A spreadsheet is the question. The answer is "no". Yes, Drupal is probably a bit overkill, but it beats having to develop my own solution. --Fred On Thu, 24 Jan 2013 06:40:57 -0500 "Sean Dague - [email protected]" <mhvlug2.trace.0ed1485039.sean#[email protected]> wrote: > Honestly, lending is pretty simple, and I did it because my needs > were simple.
