[plug] Small business software in Linux

[Tim]

Are you ready to report on your findings?

I've been using Simple Invoices for awhile, but now need something
that manages more than just invoices and payments.

Ideally it needs to be simple. Enter "costs", some are costs to the
business, some are "products" that I pass the cost on to customers
with a markup. Enter "sales", invoice customers, some are services I
provide (my time), some are "products/services" I sell (hosting).
Enter payments. And then just managing the tax side of the business.

Currently trying Frontaccounting, and while it seems solid, it also
isn't as easy as I'd like.
