5 open source software tools for supply chain management
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
This article was originally posted on January 14, 2016, and last updated March 2, 2018.
|
||||
|
||||
If you manage a business that deals with physical goods, [supply chain management][1] is an important part of your business process. Whether you're running a tiny Etsy store with just a few customers, or a Fortune 500 manufacturer or retailer with thousands of products and millions of customers worldwide, it's important to have a close understanding of your inventory and the parts and raw materials you need to make your products.
|
||||
|
||||
Keeping track of physical items, suppliers, customers, and all the many moving parts associated with each can greatly benefit from, and in some cases be totally dependent on, specialized software to help manage these workflows. In this article, we'll take a look at some free and open source software options for supply chain management and some of the features of each.
|
||||
|
||||
Supply chain management goes a little further than just inventory management. It can help you keep track of the flow of goods to reduce costs and plan for scenarios in which the supply chain could change. It can help you keep track of compliance issues, whether these fall under the umbrella of legal requirements, quality minimums, or social and environmental responsibility. It can help you plan the minimum supply to keep on hand and enable you to make smart decisions about order quantities and delivery times.
|
||||
|
||||
Because of its nature, a lot of supply chain management software is bundled with similar software, such as [customer relationship management][2] (CRM) and [enterprise resource planning][3] (ERP) tools. So, when making a decision about which tool is best for your organization, you may wish to consider integration with other tools as a part of your decision-making criteria.
|
||||
|
||||
### Apache OFBiz
|
||||
|
||||
[Apache OFBiz][4] is a suite of related tools for helping you manage a variety of business processes. While it can manage a variety of related issues like catalogs, e-commerce sites, accounting, and point of sale, its primary supply chain functions focus on warehouse management, fulfillment, order, and manufacturing management. It is very customizable, but the flip side of that is that it requires a good deal of careful planning to set up and integrate with your existing processes. That's one reason it is probably the best fit for a midsize to large operation. The project's functionality is built across three layers: presentation, business, and data, making it a scalable solution, but again, a complex one.
|
||||
|
||||
The source code of Apache OFBiz can be found in the [project's repository][5]. Apache OFBiz is written in Java and is licensed under an [Apache 2.0 license][6].
|
||||
|
||||
If this looks interesting, you might also want to check out [opentaps][7], which is built on top of OFBiz. Opentaps enhances OFBiz's user interface and adds core ERP and CRM features, including warehouse management, purchasing, and planning. It's licensed under [AGPL 3.0][8], with a commercial license available for organizations that don't want to be bound by the open source license.
|
||||
|
||||
### OpenBoxes
|
||||
|
||||
[OpenBoxes][9] is a supply chain management and inventory control project, primarily and originally designed for keeping track of pharmaceuticals in a healthcare environment, but it can be modified to track any type of stock and the flows associated with it. It has tools for demand forecasting based on historical order quantities, tracking stock, supporting multiple facilities, expiration date tracking, kiosk support, and many other features that make it ideal for healthcare situations, but could also be useful for other industries.
|
||||
|
||||
Available under an [Eclipse Public License][10], OpenBoxes is written primarily in Groovy and its source code can be browsed on [GitHub][11].
|
||||
|
||||
### OpenLMIS
|
||||
|
||||
Like OpenBoxes, [OpenLMIS][12] is a supply chain management tool for the healthcare sector, but it was specifically designed for use in low-resource areas in Africa to ensure medications and medical supplies get to patients in need. Its API-driven approach enables users to customize and extend OpenLMIS while maintaining a connection to the common codebase. It was developed with funding from the Rockefeller Foundation, and other contributors include the UN, USAID, and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
|
||||
|
||||
OpenLMIS is written in Java and JavaScript with AngularJS. It is available under an [AGPL 3.0 license][13], and its source code is accessible on [GitHub][13].
|
||||
|
||||
### Odoo
|
||||
|
||||
You might recognize [Odoo][14] from our previous top [ERP projects][3] article. In fact, a full ERP may be a good fit for you, depending on your needs. Odoo's supply chain management tools mostly revolve around inventory and purchase management, as well as connectivity with e-commerce and point of sale, but it can also connect to other tools like [frePPLe][15] for open source production planning.
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo is available both as a software-as-a-service solution and an open source community edition. The open source edition is released under [LGPL][16] version 3, and the source is available on [GitHub][17]. Odoo is primarily written in Python.
|
||||
|
||||
### xTuple
|
||||
|
||||
Billing itself as "supply chain management software for growing businesses," [xTuple][18] focuses on businesses that have outgrown their conventional small business ERP and CRM solutions. Its open source version, called Postbooks, adds some inventory, distribution, purchasing, and vendor reporting features to its core accounting, CRM, and ERP capabilities, and a commercial version expands the [features][19] for manufacturers and distributors.
|
||||
|
||||
xTuple is available under the Common Public Attribution License ([CPAL][20]), and the project welcomes developers to fork it to create other business software for inventory-based manufacturers. Its web app core is written in JavaScript, and its source code can be found on [GitHub][21].
|
||||
|
||||
There are, of course, other open source tools that can help with supply chain management. Know of a good one that we left off? Let us know in the comments below.

供应链管理方面的 5 个开源软件工具
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
本文最初发表于 2016 年 1 月 14 日，最后的更新日期为 2018 年 3 月 2 日。
|
||||
|
||||
如果你正在管理着处理实体货物的业务，[供应链管理][1] 是你的业务流程中非常重要的一部分。不论你是经营着一个只有几个客户的小商店，还是在世界各地拥有数百万计客户和成千上万产品的世界财富 500 强的制造商或零售商，很清楚地知道你的库存和制造产品所需要的零部件，对你来说都是非常重要的事情。
|
||||
|
||||
保持对货品、供应商、客户的持续跟踪，并且所有与它们相关的变动部分都会从中受益，并且，在某些情况下完全依赖专门的软件来帮助管理这些工作流。在本文中，我们将去了解一些免费的和开源的供应链管理方面的软件，以及它们的其中一些功能。
|
||||
|
||||
供应链管理比单纯的库存管理更为强大。它能帮你去跟踪货物流以降低成本，以及为可能发生的各种糟糕的变化来制定应对计划。它能够帮你对出口合规性进行跟踪，不论是合法性、最低品质要求、还是社会和环境的合规性。它能够帮你计划最低供应量，让你能够在订单数量和交付时间之间做出明智的决策。
|
||||
|
||||
由于它的本质决定了许多供应链管理软件是与类似的软件捆绑在一起的，比如，[客户关系管理][2]（CRM）和 [企业资源计划管理][3] （ERP）。因此，当你选择哪个工具更适合你的组织时，你可能会考虑与其它工具集成作为你的决策依据之一。
|
||||
|
||||
### Apache OFBiz
|
||||
|
||||
[Apache OFBiz][4] 是一套帮你管理多种业务流程的相关工具。虽然它能管理多种相关问题，比如，目录、电子商务网站、帐户、和销售点，它在供应链管理方面的主要功能关注于仓库管理、履行、订单、和生产管理。它的可定制性很强，但是，它需要大量的规划去设置和集成到你现有的流程中。这就是它适用于中大型业务的原因之一。项目的功能构建于三个层面：展示层、业务层、和数据层，它是一个弹性很好的解决方案，但是，再强调一遍，它也很复杂。
|
||||
|
||||
Apache OFBiz 的源代码在 [项目仓库][5] 中可以找到。Apache OFBiz 是用 Java 写的，并且它是按 [Apache 2.0 license][6] 授权的。
|
||||
|
||||
如果你对它感兴趣，你也可以去查看 [opentaps][7]，它是在 OFBiz 之上构建的。Opentaps 强化了 OFBiz 的用户界面，并且添加了 ERP 和 CRM 的核心功能，包括仓库管理、采购和计划。它是按 [AGPL 3.0][8] 授权使用的，对于不接受开源授权的组织，它也提供了商业授权。
|
||||
|
||||
### OpenBoxes
|
||||
|
||||
[OpenBoxes][9] 是一个供应链管理和存货管理项目，最初的主要设计目标是为了医疗行业中的药品跟踪管理，但是，它可以通过修改去跟踪任何类型的货品和相关的业务流。它有一个需求预测工具，可以基于历史订单数量、存储跟踪、支持多种场所、过期日期跟踪、销售点支持等进行预测，并且它还有许多其它功能，这使它成为医疗行业的理想选择，但是，它也可以用于其它行业。
|
||||
|
||||
它在 [Eclipse Public License][10] 下可用，OpenBoxes 主要是由 Groovy 写的，它的源代码可以在 [GitHub][11] 上看到。
|
||||
|
||||
### OpenLMIS
|
||||
|
||||
与 OpenBoxes 类似，[OpenLMIS][12] 也是一个医疗行业的供应链管理工具，但是，它专用设计用于在非洲的资源缺乏地区使用，以确保有限的药物和医疗用品能够用到需要的病人上。它是 API 驱动的，这样用户可以去定制和扩展 OpenLMIS，同时还能维护一个与通用基准代码的连接。它是由络克菲勒基金会开发的，其它的贡献者包括联合国、美国国际开发署、和比尔 & 梅林达 盖茨基金会。
|
||||
|
||||
OpenLMIS 是用 Java 和 JavaScript 的 AngularJS 写的。它在 [AGPL 3.0 license][13] 下使用，它的源代码在 [GitHub][13] 上可以找到。
|
||||
|
||||
### Odoo
|
||||
|
||||
你可能在我们以前的 [ERP 项目][3] 榜的文章上见到过 [Odoo][14]。事实上，根据你的需要，一个全功能的 ERP 对你来说是最适合的。Odoo 的供应链管理工具主要围绕存货和采购管理，同时还与电子商务网站和销售点连接，但是，它也可以与其它的工具连接，比如，与 [frePPLe][15] 连接，它是一个开源的生产计划工具。
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo 既有软件即服务的解决方案，也有开源的社区版本。开源的版本是以 [LGPL][16] 版本 3 下发行的，源代码在 [GitHub][17] 上可以找到。Odoo 主要是用 Python 来写的。
|
||||
|
||||
### xTuple
|
||||
|
||||
[xTuple][18] 标称自己是“为成长中的企业提供供应链管理软件”，它专注于已经超越了传统的小型企业 ERP 和 CRM 解决方案的企业。它的开源版本称为 Postbooks，添加了一些存货、分销、采购、以及供应商报告的功能，它提供的核心功能是帐务、CRM、以及 ERP 功能，而它的商业版本扩展了制造和分销的 [功能][19]。
|
||||
|
||||
xTuple 在 [CPAL][20] 下使用，这个项目欢迎开发者去 fork 它，为基于存货的制造商去创建其它的业务软件。它的 Web 应用核心是用 JavaScript 写的，它的源代码在 [GitHub][21] 上可以找到。
|
||||
|
||||
就这些，当然了，还有其它的可以帮你处理供应链管理的开源软件。如果你知道还有更好的软件，请在下面的评论区告诉我们。
