Overview
ERPNext is a comprehensive open source Enterprise Resource Planning suite that covers accounting, order management, inventory, manufacturing, CRM, projects, HR and payroll, helpdesk, asset management and more in one integrated web application. It is built on the Frappe framework, a full-stack Python and JavaScript metadata-driven platform. This image delivers ERPNext fully installed and wired as a production system, so a complete ERP is running within minutes of launch.
Application Stack
The Frappe framework and the ERPNext application installed into a dedicated bench under a service account, with the Python virtualenv and the built front-end assets. MariaDB as the database, with its datadir on a dedicated data disk so the ERP database is independently resizable and survives instance replacement. Redis for caching, the job queue and realtime pub/sub. gunicorn web workers plus Frappe background workers, all managed by supervisor. A node socket.io server for realtime desk updates. An nginx reverse proxy that publishes the whole application on port 80.
Complete ERP Suite
Manage your chart of accounts, sales and purchase cycles, stock and warehouses, bills of materials and production, leads and opportunities, projects and timesheets, employees, leave and payroll, and customer support, all from one consistent desk interface. Build custom DocTypes, workflows, print formats, reports and dashboards with the low-code Frappe tooling, and integrate over the built in REST API.
Secure First Boot
On the first boot of your instance a one shot service generates a fresh Administrator password, unique to that instance, applies it to the live site and writes the password to a root only file. No shared or default Administrator credentials ship in the image. Every Frappe and ERPNext process binds to loopback and is reachable only through the nginx proxy on port 80.
Ready To Use
The ERPNext desk is served on port 80 through nginx. Sign in as Administrator with the generated password to run the setup wizard, create your company, invite users and start transacting. The Frappe REST API is available on the same port for integration and automation.
