webERP is a free web-based open-source enterprise resource planning (ERP) application with accounting functionality. A forked project using the same name also exists. See the "External links" section for how to differentiate between the two.

Product history

webERP has its roots in the limited liability company Logic Works, ran by developer Phil Daintree. The software was based on an old Microsoft Access implementation but was rewritten to utilize MySQL tables in 2000.[2] webERP was officially open sourced on January 7, 2003 on SourceForge[3], and the first release arrived in the form of version 0.1.1 a few days later.[1] Numerous updates were made throughout the year. Citing a quick maturation of the code base and ease of marketing, the versioning changed with the release made on October 27, 2003: from 0.2.4 to 2.5.[1] By June 2009 openERP was averaging more than 100 downloads a day and had been downloaded in total over 250,000 times from SourceForge.[4] That same year the Young i Professionals, an international group of IBM i enthusiasts, added webERP to its tech sandbox so users around the world could demo the application.[5]

Roughly between 2010 and 2011 an internal disagreement between key developers Phil Daintree and Tim Schofield grew, resulting in Schofield ceasing significant contributions to the webERP project and creating a fork of the project using an identical name.[6][7]
