Implement the fucntionality of Gnucash around your inventory system, and voila, you have a complete ERP. And now you can offer us something.

That's what nearly all of the feedback I've gotten has been. "It needs to be like X or do Y".

I fought that for a long time but I've been forced to see that inventory management by itself is not something that many businesses can use. They need inventory + X.

Nuanced difference between what you're saying and what the GP is saying. GP isn't saying inventory + $random_feature, he's saying make it a complete solution.

By saying 'us', I assume you're a small business owner?

Have you looked at OpenERP? What doesn't it do for you?

OpenERP is great, but a full ERP needs a lot of people and sales, I just don't need to make a requisition for every thing I buy, neither do I need purchase orders, or so much as openerp offers. I just need GnuCash to manage inventory and thats all
