Is there an online resource that lets us determine what is available OOTB, as well as what an accountant usually requires, so a rational assessment can be made as to what, if any, extensions we may require? I am an experienced software engineer, but I know almost nothing about what accountants need from a product like OFBiz. One of the challenges I have faced in exploring OFBiz is that I see reports and various forms but have little idea as to what some of them are for (obviously some are relatively self explanatory, but others, so far, have remained a mystery): that is one of the challenges of using OFBiz, in that one may have a deep understanding of some parts of it (in my case ecommerce), because of extensive experience in it, but little understanding of other parts (in my case accounting), because of having virtually no experience in it. That makes it hard to offer support to businesses that would benefit from using some or all of it.
