ERPNext - cost-effective ERP solution

@BetaBreak is https://github.com/njsubedi/cloudron-erpnext/blob/master/CloudronManifest.json in your root dir?

@plusone-nick I downloaded the zip file from https://github.com/njsubedi/cloudron-erpnext locally on my computer and cd in that folder. Than I used the instruction provided by @nj https://forum.cloudron.io/post/87732 to get it running on cloudron.

Noted, focusing on the error - is the CloudronManifest.json file currently in the system? As the output is suggesting the file is not there, maybe it's gone ‍️

@plusone-nick You need to load the CloudronManifest into the root directory on your computer and run the installation command from that root directory.

[zonzonzon]

@plusone-nick Yes, you need to download everything and put them all in one folder, then try to run the installation command from the folder containing these files. (Cloudron CLI on Windows)

Any hope at all?
I need business applications and it would be great to leverage Cloudron beneath them. Therefore ExpNext and Odoo would add so much value to the portfolio of applications offered through Cloudron.

Yes there is Dolibarr, but it is not adequate.

@makemrproper Use EspoCRM

[makemrproper]

@robi Thank you for the idea and suggestion that I should be using EspoCRM. I require more than a CRM in general. Here is an overview of ERPNEXT modules which include a host of functionality. The same goes for Odoo or Flextra as well.

@makemrproper I've not played with it, but I think @marcusquinn would say you could very likely replicate all that using a combination of EspoCRM's custom data fields and portal features.

A lot more work, but also totally bespoke.

But, agreed, regardless of all that it would still be useful to have ERPNext on Cloudron

Chatgpt recommended ERPNext when I asked for an app to manage a mini-mart's inventory and to be used with a POS/scanner. If so, +1 from me!
