Book Description

April 1, 2009
Do you dream of the perfect company? That's the company where information moves freely between all functional areas, where you never have to enter data a second time, and everything is centralized in a single enterprise management system. This is the place where you rarely work on anything in a panic because everything is planned and well-structured, where everybody has permanent access to all useful information, and where all routine tasks are automated and easily controlled. This book presents a modern approach to retail and industrial management, giving you the tools for implementing this type of integrated management based on the open source software: Open ERP. It describes how you can integrate your different services and automate tasks: sales, purchases, process management, stocks, manufacturing, etc.

3.0 out of 5 stars Poor explanations and poor English, but still worth buying, February 21, 2011
By 
Philu (Thornleigh, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Open ERP for Retail and Industrial Management (Paperback)
On the positive side: if you are an OpenERP user or developer, you will probably want this book as a reference on your bookshelf, because even though most of the material is available on the web anyway, you still can't beat paper, in my opinion.

On the negative side, this book is quite a dry read, and is very light on explanation of what the software actually does; it does tell you what to do for straight-forward use of the software, but does not cover all options.
E.g. on page 147, there is a screen shot for receiving a supplier's order, and on that screen you can see buttons labelled "Process Later", "Process Now", "Unreceived Products", but there is no explanation of what "Unreceived Products" actually does - does it show you a list of products to add to the form, or what? It does not explain what the Reference field used for - is it just for your reference, or does the system allow searching on this field? What are the implications of each of the options in the "Invoice Control" field?
So the book is very shallow and incomplete in its explanation of OpenERP.

The book was obviously written by a non-native English speaker - there are a lot of unusual idioms, e.g. on page 146 it says "You'll find a list of all the awaited receipts..."; normal English usage would phrase this as "You'll find a list of all outstanding orders...". There are many instances of weird English.

Other than that, it's a useful reference for OpenERP. It was written for version 5 of OpenERP, and the material is still relevant for the version 6 of OpenERP, even though some of the functionality has changed and the screens have been refined.

My verdict: worth buying if you're a user or developer of OpenERP.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good but for version 5, August 2, 2011
This review is from: Open ERP for Retail and Industrial Management (Paperback)
The book is very useful but is written on version 5.0 of openERP. This is no problem but I prefer to read some book on the latest version.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good introduction to stock and manufacturing processes with Open ERP, May 31, 2009
This review is from: Open ERP for Retail and Industrial Management (Paperback)
I suggest this book to any people that want to discover Open ERP. It's clear, present lots of different cases and complete. It should help industries to integrate their sales, manufacturing, purchasing and inventory processes.
