Purchase Order System for Linux?

Posted by Cliff on from the sell-requests-on-the-intranet dept.

trav3l3r asks: "Does anyone out there have any experience with Purchase Order software for Linux? Web based would be preferred. I am trying to set up a P.O. system for a small business (5 employees) in the area and trying to keep cost down for them. I have done the pre-requisite search on Google and Freshmeat and found very little. Any advice would be appreciated."

    Send all your money to me. Then you don't have any money to buy things, and you won't need a PO system.

    On a serious note...

    I just set up a PO system using M$ Excel. Excel has a smaple template that's easily modified into a PO tracking system (it even has some kind of database built in)

    It'd take a few days of hacking, but you could probably get the template to work in your favorite Open Source spreadsheet application.

    If nothing else, you could easily hack together a PHP/mySQL application.
