Issue Tracking (Requests)

If you find a bug or an issue with Compiere, we want to know about it. Please log issues in our Issue Tracking system.

Overview

Please follow these guidelines before logging a new request:

  1. Verify in the list of public requests if the issue has not already been reported.
  2. Try to reproduce the problem on a vanilla instance (i.e. an instance without code customizations/extensions) with the latest release.
  3. If facing multiple issues, please log a separate request per issue.
  4. Gather the relevant documentation for the summary field of the request.

    - Short single-line description for first line of the summary as it will be displayed in the grid view
    - Step by step instructions to reproduce the problem
    - Attach the relevant log files and screenshots
    - If proposing a code change, mention the SVN revision in which your fix is based

The Issue Tracking system is not intended to replace the Compiere Open Discussion Forum on sourceforge.net. The Open Discussion Forum is a great place for the Compiere Community to share knowledge, provide and receive peer support and discuss implementation-related questions.

Note: Firefox is the recommended browser when using Compiere 3.0 with the web user interface.
