I was wondering what others where doing for Bill Of Material/Inventory Management?
I'm looking for a better system than part numbers in a gnumeric/excel file, and text files. I have been putting non-significant part numbers (they are just numbers, they contain no inherent categories; common problem in BOM management) in the parts in my schematic, then look the numbers up in a text file with fgrep. I would like a real ERP system like Compiere http://sourceforge.net/projects/compiere/ but that is not in the budget right now (You have to buy a Oracle or Sybase license to use the open source Compiere). Suggestions?
