Zencart + CK-ERP Demo upgrade
C K Wu
I have just updated the (Zencart + CK-ERP) demo at,
http://ck-erp.org/zencart/admin , to Zencart 1.3.8a + CK-ERP 0.28.1.
With this update, there is one major zencart related enhancement
(Zencart data import) being added to the CK-ERP codebase. This
functionality is located at, ck-import -> zencart
This time round, the default zencart admin user, demo/guest, is allowed
to access CK-ERP's administration cluster. Hence, you could visit,
administation cluster -> ck-import -> zencart , to test out the new
feature. As usual, Zencart data can only be imported once, so you may
have to create new dummy Zencart data to test out the import if some one
before you have already imported the standard Zencart demo data.
Currently, the import of Zencart [master] customer and product data had
been fully developed and tested. After collecting your feedback and
comments on the current design and with a bit of finetuning, the import
of Zencart [transactional] order and payment data will be developed at a
later stage. The end result is, hopefully, an integrated (Zencart +
CK-ERP) environment, in which, Zencart will run continuously, with
Zencart to CK-ERP data import being performed periodically, say weekly,
to record Zencart online sales via CK-ERP ledger entries. Nevertheless,
even at this stage, importing Zencart product data into CK-ERP will
allow Zencart operators to issue stock-replenishment purchase orders via
CK-ERP. Ideally, (LAMP + Zencart + CK-ERP) will evolve into perhaps one
of the most powerful e-commerce platform.
Because of the previous incident of someone fouling up the Zencart admin
user records, so, for the benefit of the community, please, do not
change the Zencart admin user records when you visit the demo site.
As usual, any critique, comment, feedback,... are most welcomed and desired.
Best Regards,
CK
