Amazonian

Just like there is limitless water flowing in Amazon, for the delight of Amazonians, you can use the power of Amazon S3. Just enable S3 storage by uncommenting here in your .rb file by uncommenting the line and give the right credentials and you will have amazon working.

config.paperclip_defaults = {
    :hash_secret => "longSecretStringChangeItForSecurity",
    :url => "/system/:class/:id/:hash.:extension",
    # :storage => :s3,
    :s3_host_name => 'amazon_host_name', # or whatever your region host name is
    :s3_credentials => {
      :bucket => 'amazon_bucket',
      :access_key_id => 'access_key',
      :secret_access_key => 'secret_access_key'
    }
  }

Plus we have got some bug fixes and minor updates like friends section appearing in company dropdown as shown below.

So, enjoy life!

Historian

You need to understand the past to understand the present. History of why change took place is very important. We need to know who created history. So now we are releasing Historian, yet another feature added Compass ERP.

This release has the following features. You can monitor, how many versions of your transactions were created from the front panel as shown (see the number after tiny clock icon)

If you noticed, we have added Asset type record!

When a record is clicked, a detailed version pf what has changed is presented to you as shown

You can see its whole page view here

Yaa, yaa bill gates works for me. I don't like to have dumb people who can't even recognize free software working for Compass ERP, but he begged. What to do?

Releasing Balloonist

A balloonist can view whats happening in a town from an high point. thats what we have done in Compass ERP, every record now shows how many notes and files it contains right in the front page as shown.

A balloonist should be able to gently navigate his way through the town, effortlessly, and yes that could be done too, now the company button bears a drop down

with which one can navigate from contacts to books and vice versa.

We have plenty of ideas for Compass ERP, and we will be implementing them soon.

Gatekeeper

You can't allow your Compass ERP installation to be used by every one. So if one signs up and is not permitted, one sees the following screen

To allow it you must permit the email address providing it in the admin section as shown

You can visit the admin section using the following address http://domain_name/admin . You will be prompted for user name and password. The setting of credentials can be fount in app/config/rails_admin.rb as shown below

config.authorize_with do
    authenticate_or_request_with_http_basic('Site Message') do |username, password|
      username == 'mindaslab' && password == 'kaputupak'
    end
end

In the above settings, the user name is mindaslab and the password is kaputupak.
