What it is

webERP is a free, web-based, open-source accounting and business management system for businesses of all sizes. It brings together accounts receivable and payable, general ledger, bank accounts, inventory, purchasing, order management, and manufacturing tools, with support for multiple entities. Manufacturing functions include multi-level bills of materials, work orders, and material requirements planning; capacity requirements planning and MRP II are not available. The project says it is available in 37 languages. webERP runs on a PHP-capable web server and is operating-system independent, but it requires a MySQL or MariaDB database. Deployment is on-premise and self-hosted, under the GNU General Public License v2 at free. The system provides role-based access, transaction audit trails, optional SSL encryption, account lockout after three incorrect passwords, and protections against SQL injection and cross-site scripting. Its XML-RPC API lets external programs retrieve and update data, but can access only one company per installation. The project also maintains webSHOP and CounterLogicPOS portals.
