Any comments regarding this product?
My proposal last year for SQL-Ledger got turned down in favor of Quickbooks, but I did set this up locally for evaluation. It is very simple to get up and running, which is cool considering it's a fairly complex piece of work. I recommend you give it a shot and get your accounting people to give it a spin. That's the only way you'll know whether it'll suit your needs or not. I am not an accountant, but from what I remember it supposedly has pretty comprehensive GL and inventory functionality. You may also want to try NOLA[1] out. I haven't evaluated this (no use now that we have our system set up), but it's worth a shot.
