Hi! I'm currently the Access guru at my office job, and I decided a few months ago I wanted to try to develop a database or two for my friends who own small, crafty businesses to track their supplies and orders.
Now, I know how to do that in Access - but Access isn't exactly cross-platform compatible. At all. So I figured it was a pipe dream - till someone suggested I look into Drupal. I do not know SQL well but I've picked up bits and pieces and I'm quite okay with learning more.
What I don't know - and I'll admit I'm a little overwhelmed - is if Drupal can do what I want it to do. I looked at Modules and I think Ubercart might *kind of help* but it seems to be more straight e-commerce and what I want to make is something more back-end for people to track their own supplies, inventory, etc. I want them to be able to open it up, choose supplies/iventory/orders, and then be linked to the data they've entered, and have the ability to run reports (best seller of the last year, what their levels are of all glass beads, etc).
Am I in the right spot or is Drupal not meant to do that? I don't mind learning how to do it - I just want to make sure it CAN do it. I feel silly asking but there's just SO much information out there that I'm not sure where to start, and if I do start, if I'll even be able to finish.
