1.) Payroll has been solved by other ERP's. So how did they do it? They do it by putting in things like flexible rules systems that you can configure to accomodate needs of each country with their special taxes, percentages, limits, etc. Tiny will not be used in any major context without having a Payroll module. Surely we all collectively have enough knowledge about the different payroll requirements for each country/area that we can put some requirements together.
2.) amen. 3.) I truly do not understand why you make this statement: > I wouldn't trust my financial data to any current version of MySQL Thousands upon thousands of companies trust MySQL everyday with their financial data without any problem. It seems as though the one thing that detractors of MySQL love to point to is this Feb. 30th date thing, meanwhile overlooking all the other huge benefits that MySQL offers. I mean really, put in a date edit for crying out loud and forget about it. I"m not going to relist all the reasons why supporting MySQL or database independence is a good idea. Here are the posts for that information: http://tinyerp.org/forum/topic4545.html?highlight=ado%20mysql http://tinyerp.org/forum/topic287.html?highlight=ado%20mysql I understand that you like Postgres. Fine, but, postgres is not found in many companies. And if you think you will have an easy time convincing customers to install a second database different from their current database infrastructure then I would assert you have never tried this. I have many years of dealing with CIO's and CTO's and it presents a huge hurdle when your product offering requires such things as a special database requirement. This is nothing against Postgres, it is just a fact of the marketplace. 4.) Integration with the open document system is critical. Then from there you can do many many things, including embed things in other documents and printing to PDF and a host of other formats. 5.) Yes, better tools for reporting and templating are definitely needed. Gerry _______________________________________________ Tinyerp-users mailing list http://tiny.be/mailman/listinfo/tinyerp-users
