Hi all, I have decided (wisely or not given the "credit crunch") to go self-employed. I'm looking for some software (either a single application, or some things that I can tie together nicely) that's fairly easy to use and covers the following: + Keeping track of customers (simple details) + Keeping track of work done for each customer (has to support multiple work-types per customer) + Producing invoices for customers + Keeping track of income and expenditure I've had a look at Sage 50 (because it was available), but it looks a bit big for my boots, plus... it's Sage, which is hardly Free Software. Likewise (size-wise) with Gnucash (unless anyone can suggest an idiot-proof tutorial on how to set it up (why 'blah' needs to be set up as 'blah' - I really haven't the first clue when it comes to accounting type things) and use it). I've looked at Eqonomize!, but it doesn't seem to quite fit the bill (unless I'm doing something wrong... always a possibility); I've had a look at GnoTime, which (so far) seems a bit awkward to use in this context; HomeBank, KMyMoney and Grisbi all seem targeted at plain ol' bank account management; Kraft won't work without a MySQL database. Anyone got any ideas? Cheers. Grant. -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/linux_adm/list-faq.html
