A good ERP written in Delphi
Yogi Yang 007
the best tools on this planet.
I was wondering if there are any good ERPs developed using Delphi. Can
someone point me to them if they do exist?!
I have heard about osFinancials an Open Source Accounting software but
that is it. I also have heard of BS/1 Accounting & ERP (more of an
accounting package than an ERP) but nothing beyond that.

The good ERP (and all the software, any application) is not function of
programming language - it is functions of developers, team, managements,
design, etc... So, there are many very good, excellent applications, that
are running maybe and inside your PC, but nobody rolls that they are a
Delphi application :)

costs and delivery times by mining the accounting data. Take a hard look at
BS/1. If you review the source code you will be able to determine if you can
modify it to backfill any of your individual requirements that it doesn't
meet.

But I think that they will not be usefull for you. :)

I can list many features that I am looking for in ERPs but theprice
requirement is that the software should be in English. I am searching
for manufacturing ERP which is running on FireBird or some such open
source RDBMS and which should have good vendor management features as
well as should be reasonably priced.

Why not making it multilanguage? :)
It maybe tough at first but the results are great. dxgettext is a great tool
for this. I even took sometime in
previous versions of marvellous BS1 and got a quite decent spanish version
myself :)

Thanks for this but I have already wrestled with it for almost 2 months
before giving up as it is primarily in German language and after a
second though English language is added to it. Secondly they do not have
any descent documentation in English also. On contacting them on this
matter they said that they are planning to release any kind of
documentations in English in near future.

I would never want to use a non-English software even if it is the best
in the world, so Brazilian only software are out of question.

employees that are trying to sport applications that are popular and
written in Delphi. Poor chaps they are going to have a hard time
spotting apps written in Delphi.

I have tested all the version but there are many things left to desire
in all of them. Another thing is that the prices are very steep from my
point of view (as US$ 1 = INR 42).
Yogi Yang 007
Thomas,
I know about AvERP.
But I have not been able to find the download link to its source code
nor am I able to register myself in their web forums. Can you help me
here please?
Yogi Yang 007
When I compare BS/1 to TinyERP (Open Source Python based) they look
pathetic with limited functionality and obscure ways of implementing a
few things. BTW this is my view. It may not be yours.

At least 2/3 of meat processing plants in Belarus are running on
Gedemin ERP.
It is open sourced ERP platform done completely on Delphi and
Firebird.
Pity, it has only belarusian and russian UI.
Keith Latham
Have a look at these guys: http://www.responsive.co.nz/
The free program, 'Ledger', is a little general ledger program quite
useful for small clubs, but its little more than a demo. The 'Ledger
Plus' program is more feature and module enabled. You can but the source
code and build your own modules.

Not using Delphi, but IIRC SAP db originally was a Pascal codebase :-)
Keith Latham
Interesting. SAP DB came from Software AG originally. It is now owned by
MySQL and has been renamed MAX DB.
By the way, SAP DB was mainly used for training systems for the SAP ERP.
I don't know of anyone that used it for live systems. SAP doesn't want
to be a DB company. They prefer customers to use other companies for
that (Oracle, IBM, etc).
WillR
I have no opinion on either.
I just do Shop floor to erp occasionally and noticed it one day in the
third party forum.
Usually choosing an ERP is an exercise in choosing the least worst -- imho.

Hi Keith
Although Ledger is simple in appearance and usage it is a *lot* more
than a 'demo'.
'Demo' normally implies some kind of usage restriction which is
definitely not the
case.
Also there is no effective limit on the amount of data Ledger can
handle and it is
being used to great effect by businesses, non-profits, churches and
*large* clubs.

Source code is available -- the accounting side looked good last time I
looked.

No idea if it meets your needs as you did not specify industry etc. No
idea if it is extended to an ERP -- but you can get source code -- so...
Keith Latham
Quite true.
I didn't mean to give that impression, but I see that I might very well
have. It's a great 'little' program and I didn't mean to cast it in a
bad light.
What I meant to say that it didn't approach an ERP in any way, though
Ledger Plus might be. "Ledger" is just that, a "General Ledger" module,
and it does that very well - and at an excellant price.
Today I put together a little front end for Ledger and another "freebee"
program (invoicing) so our club treasurer won't have to worry about them
too much. It took me an hour or so to get the front end working, but now
I've got to get a 'one-touch' backup firing. The ZLib file won't create
for some reason at the moment.
Oh, well. Tomorrow is another day.

It looks like only accounting though.
Claims to be ERP

No knowledge of the above -- but there are packages out there.

What is your time frame to choose and implement -- I have other
information which _may_ be useful. If the client size is appropriate.
If you want to specify numbers and types of machines in manufacturing --
types of transactions to be supplied I am aware of add-on systems for
accounting systems which do shop floor etc. written in Delphi among
others. Supply an estimate of size of company likely budgets -- I may
know of some fits -- but without that info I don't know if it is worth
their time or yours.
Even (especially!) with SAP and others you need heavy modification for
manufacturing monitoring anyway -- I assume it is manufacturing.
Without at least a general requirements description its pretty difficult
to guess what may be suitable.
Lots of people do not specify their development environment so that it
does not become an issue.
I think we cross over in client types and areas of work so we may be
able to trade information. However, I am about to start an assignment
that may take some months (and may not).
However, if we can help each other, then we can get in touch directly.
If you're not interested that's fine too -- I have lots of work to amuse
me -- and I know you do more so than I... :-)

Thanks for the link. I will check it. I am looking out for ERPs more
suitable for fabricating industry that makes products as per Orders only.

You are right. It is an accounting only solution.

Basically any company that has developed a software which addresses
three or more areas of an organization can call its software an ERP
software.
I have seen one such a software which supports, Purchase, Sales, HRD and
Fianance and claims be an ERP (because it is covering more than three
critical area).

I actually do not have any time frame for this as before posting on this
NG we have already agreed to us the free and Open source TinyERP which
has got 200+ modules is written in Python and uses GTK+ for UI and is
really very flexible and usable (I think so).
I was just curious so to how many ERP software have really been
developed in Delphi compared to other languages like VB, C++, etc.
I don't take this as a Barometer for Delphi's popularity though.
but it does show how

The idea of add-on systems is great, can you list a few along with the
name of accounting software that they can be used with.
But then I also must tell you that in our area the accounting systems
that rules Tally (http://www.tallysolutions.com/) with around 10 million
installation world wide. Generally people have not even heard of this
accounting system outside Asia, but it is very easy to learn and use and
is very low on Hardware requirements.
It has got its own scripting language using which one can customize it
to the extent one wants. But after trying everything in it to customize
it for manufacturing/fabrication (for make to order company) we came to
the conclusion to absolute it and switch to a more modern and easy to
use ERP system which covered most (if not every) part of our business
cost very neglible.
Mind you the concept of UI that is implemented in Tally is just no
brainier and very usable. I have not seen any software till date with
such an easy user interface and have also not been able to emulate it.....

Yes it is Manufacturing on Order basis

We are manufacturing machines for which we have developed standard
designs and we modify them as per client's requirements. So they fall
into the category of Make to Order.
Major (except core) Part of machine are done by vendors so we also want
good Vendor management in the target ERP which does not exist in TinyERP
but I think we will get that done from one of its partners.

This is interesting -- out of Belgium, even. Good thing stuff is in
English and Spanish as well -- much better than my French.
I will look at the documentation and may even download the program first
-- I may have clients for the package.
Let me see if what I know if what I am aware of can interface to it
(easily) before I take more time.
Yogi Yang 007
professionally as a part time business. I am trying to convince my
existing customers (who are using my software) to switch to TinyERP.
I thought instead of using TinyERP as it is very weak in fabrication
sector better adopt something better and if it is developed in Delphi
than it would be better. As I know Delphi to an extent but am Zero with
Python. That is the reason why I started this thread.
TinyERP is really worth using. It is as easy to use as an Accounting
system. It is flexible, as well as low on resource requirements.
Do try it and adopt it if you like.
