Ideas / Note subtypes, so that you track expenses, etc
« on: December 15, 2010, 06:43:39 am »
Hi, I'm a programmer that just recently tried out Fengoffice and I'm loving it. Good job putting together a great piece of software. By the way, I thought of an interesting idea. Why not make it so that you can have note subtypes? That way you can do nifty things like store your 'expenses' as a note subtype of 'expense' with the custom property of 'value', and then you can make a report of them using reporting. You could then export that table to CSV, and from there you could import the CSV into a spreadsheet to add it up. That way you could use Fengoffice to do your bookkeeping of items that require specific fields in an elegant way. I sure this idea could expand to far more things than just expenses... Lol, I'm too sleepy right now to think of anything else.
On another note, I'm really interesting in programming things for Fengoffice. I tried to make it so that you could log into Dokuwiki through a Fengoffice panel, but as far as I got was getting Dokuwiki to load in an iframe :/. I also wasn't really satisfied with how I put it together... I didn't really put it together in a way that kept it completely separated from the Fengoffice core code.. Is there anything in Fengoffice that works like Drupal's ability to parse module files, so I don't have to change core code to add another tab?
