About This Course
Every ERPNext system needs someone who owns it. This course teaches you to manage users, settings, permissions and customisation, with no code.
You'll give each person exactly the access they need, configure the settings that run ERPNext, control document numbering and adapt forms safely. You'll build print formats, notifications, approval workflows, reports, dashboards and workspaces, and load data in bulk without damaging it.
You finish with what a good administrator checks to keep the system healthy - error logs, background jobs, backups and updates - and what an administrator should never do.
