Leaving out Accounting module altogether

[Mani]

Dear Ofbiz Devs and Users:

For on of the prospective clients, we are considering using OfBiz to develop
a custom ERP solution. But accounting is done outside as a separate
solution. How complex is it to leave out accounting but get the rest of the
functions like order processing working?

Any pointers and tips in this regard is very much appreciated

Warm Regards,
Mani.

This should be doable. You can disable accounting transaction postings while orders are processed. This can be disabled by commenting secas which are used for transaction posting during order processing.

Thanks & Regards

it is best leave it be and just hide the tabs to accounting,by
app-bar-display="false"/> in \applications\accounting
you can look at
specialpurpose\ecommerce\ofbiz-component.xml for an example

BJ,

Only hiding will not work as there may be chances at many places where you will get the errors in posting transactions because of missing GL data.

hi,
In ofbiz all modules are independent. you can use order processing without
touching accounting module.
so, it will not be a complex task.

thanks & regards!
