I think at one point we had some LedgerSMB users using SimpleInvoices and importing data into LedgerSMB.
I think the difficulty with invoicing is that it is so heavily tied to everything else one might try to do in a business, from tracking inventory to CRM to financial accounting. This doesn't mean that one can't do this, but the interconnections seem to be key.
re ledgdersmb
- yep - the ledgersmb crew did some great work to the SimpleInvoices code to make it work for them
re interconnections
* depending on the target market
* the people who need integration already do some form of accounting already - and a 'full stack' accounting solution like http://xero.com is more appropriate for this market
* simpleinvoices market is people with no accounting system or desire for debit/credit stuff so we have make no attempts to make quickbooks, etc. integration work
