Erp

Plan resources, track inventory, and coordinate departments with reporting. Use when allocating resources, managing stock, or tracking department KPIs.

Enterprise resource planning productivity toolkit (v2.0.0). Log and track business activities across multiple categories — planning, tracking, reviews, reminders, priorities, archiving, tagging, timelines, reports, and weekly reviews. Each command records timestamped entries to its own log file, giving you a complete audit trail of all business operations.

Data Storage

All data is stored as plain-text log files in ~/.local/share/erp/:

• Per-command logs — Each command (add, plan, track, etc.) writes to its own .log file (e.g., add.log, plan.log).
• History log — Every operation is also appended to history.log with a timestamp and command name.
• Export files — Generated in the same directory as export.json, export.csv, or export.txt.

Entries are stored in timestamp|value format, making them easy to grep, parse, or pipe into other tools.

Requirements

• Bash 4.0+ (uses set -euo pipefail)
• coreutils — date, wc, du, head, tail, grep, basename, cut
• No external dependencies, API keys, or network access required
• Works fully offline on any POSIX-compatible system

When to Use

1. Daily operational logging — Track what happened across departments each day: sales calls, support tickets resolved, inventory received, tasks completed.
2. Resource planning and prioritization — Use plan and prioritize to record allocation decisions and rank items by importance before committing resources.
3. Weekly business reviews — Run weekly-review to summarize the week, then stats to see aggregate numbers and export json to share with stakeholders.
4. Reminder and follow-up management — Use remind to note items that need attention later, and search to quickly find past reminders by keyword.
5. Audit trail and compliance — Every action is timestamped and logged to history.log, providing a complete chronological record of all ERP activities for auditing purposes.

Examples

bash

# Add a new inventory item
erp add "Received 500 units of Widget-A from Supplier-X"

# Plan resource allocation for Q2
erp plan "Allocate 3 engineers to Project Alpha for Q2"

# Track a KPI
erp track "Customer satisfaction score: 4.7/5.0"

# Set a priority
erp prioritize "Ship feature-X before feature-Y — customer deadline March 30"

# Record a weekly review
erp weekly-review "Week 12: shipped 3 features, resolved 15 tickets, revenue +8%"

# Search for anything mentioning 'Widget'
erp search Widget

# Export everything to JSON for reporting
erp export json

# Check system health
erp status

# View summary statistics
erp stats

Tips

• Run any data command without arguments to see recent entries (e.g., erp add shows the last 20 add entries).
• Use erp recent for a quick overview of all activity across all categories.
• Pipe exports to other tools: cat ~/.local/share/erp/export.csv | column -t -s,
• Back up your data by copying ~/.local/share/erp/ to your preferred backup location.
