These projects have been evaluated as part of this effort and rejected, both
for a basis of this project or for any code reuse. A few of the primary
reasons are given on this page, but the whole evaluation can be read on the
linked page.
* [[ExistingProjects/Frontaccounting#final-eval]]
* Straight PHP with no framework
* Data model somewhat messy, accounting not clearly separated.
* Only one or two developers.
* Workflow not easily configured.
* [[ExistingProjects/webERP]]: <http://www.weberp.org/> NOTE: [[Frontaccounting|ExistingProjects/Frontaccounting]] is a fork of webERP.
* A brief look at the source code seems to indicate that webERP suffers from the same issues as Frontaccounting.
* [[ExistingProjects/GNUEnterprise]]
> GNU Enterprise is not a Finance/ERP/Accounting software (yet). While the original project goal was to create exactly that, the maintainers at that time decided that as a first step, good development tools for database centered applications should be created. The focus of development then was strongly on these tools, and while they are to a certain extent usable to actually create database applications, further development in the project has come to a halt because most (all) developers shifted their energy to other projects.

* [[ExistingProjects/Garradin]]
* Entirely in french, would need l10n, i18n and might not be suitable for US or international use. *Disclaimer: I cannot read french, these are assumptions.*
