Using ERPNext in Belgium, including accounting

[SimonD]

Hi all,

Newcomer here.
I’m currently trying to understand if ERPNext can be used in Belgium for my business needs. I represent a non-profit luthiery school that we want to develop here in Belgium.

In a previous attempt to switch to an open-source solution, we found it difficult to find an accountant who could use the system and collaborate on its configuration.

Is there any list of Belgian accountants who know ERPNext that I could contact?

Also, I’ve tried the Docker installation locally, but the chart of accounts is generic. How can I import a Belgian chart of accounts or an belgian localisation?

Thanks for your help,

Simon

Maybe @rmeyer can connect you with someone.

You’ll likely face the same difficulties here.

Not that I know of – ERPNext is still quite niche in Europe.
