Looking at the behaviour of the users and situations I know , I doubt that OpenERP will be used as you think. Neverthelss, please ad a time dimension to the graphs - Example "Sold Products and Total Price" without time selection it 1) will select all available data - no one is interested in all sales from the beginning of OpenERP 2) will consume considerable time to be generated 3) if a company has more than 20 -30 products , the x - axis is likely to be unreadable anyhow I really would appreciate if you could do testing with a full set of data (2-3 years ) with the limited demo data everything "performs" and looks nice -- regards Ferdinand Gassauer ChriCar Beteiligungs- und Beratungs- GmbH Official OpenERP Partner _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openerp-expert-accounting Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openerp-expert-accounting More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
