Topic: Product Development

In any industry, Product development is an integral part. I feel that a separate module dedicated for Product development should be there. Here, the user should be able to keep track of product development at various stages (Design, sample making, submission to customer, feedback, approval, costing etc.). Other users/developers are invited to share their thoughts.

Re: Product Development

A rudimentary CRM is available in FA. Specialised CRMs like vTiger are available for those with more detailed CRM needs. The workflow you describe is typical of an issue management system where iterative user interaction in target fulfillment is desired.

In the software design process we have Bug Trackers like MantisBT that FA uses for it's evolution.

Having it in FA would needlessly complicate a simple to manage ERP that FA is designed to address. There are already 79 tables in FA.

There are other mature projects in the Project Management space that can be leveraged for product development needs. If some simple table structure can be envisaged, then a basic product development module can be developed as an extension.
