Re: Is LSMB really suitable for the public?

[Ted Onley <..hidden..>]

I've been working on converting a client from a MS Access based accounting app 
to SQL-Ledger.  Recently I've decided to go with LedgerSMB instead.

I still need to check out compatibility, but I created several scripts to take 
text files that I dumped out of the old app and run them into SL using LWP.

Item import
Assembly import
Customer Order import
Purchase Order import

Additionally I created scripts to automating the invoice posting and cash 
application - although they still need a little work.

I'd like to see if I can contribute to the effort for migration scripts.  How 
can I contribute?
