BlueSeer ERP is a Free open source ERP software package. It was designed to meet a need in
the manufacturing community for an ERP system that is easily customizable and
extendable while providing generic functionality that is typically observed in
most manufacturing environments.[1]
BlueSeer is released under the MIT License. The application and source code
are available for download at SourceForge.com. The development of BlueSeer
began in 2005, and the latest version 4.2 was released on June 26th 2019.

Technology[edit]
BlueSeer ERP is written entirely in Java. The application is a non-web based
graphical user interface desktop application that relies heavily on the Java Swing Swing (Java) widget
toolkit/library. There are currently two database engines available for
BlueSeer.
For single client deployment, The relational database SQLite is used for
it's deployment ease and server-less design. For multi-client
deployment scenarios, the open-source relational database MySQL is used as the
back-end database server. MySQL was chosen for it's popularity and excellent
performance
reviews[2].
BlueSeer is a menu-driven application. It's "molecular composition" is a collection of Java Swing
JPanel widgets. Each business function, i.e. Order Entry, Item Master
Maintenance, etc is a stand-alone JPanel widget. Each JPanel widget is loaded
at runtime using Reflection (computer programming) to 'inject' the JPanel
into the JFrame on user
demand. JPanel class names are stored in the database and associated
with menu options which are further associated with user permissions. This
archtitecture increases the capability of customization and extension by
engaging BlueSeer as
a Desktop Application Framework. Applications independent of the core
software can be quickly deployed
given the menu/class managment and
permissions functionality that's built into the BlueSeer framework.
Current development interests are the inclusion of other open
source database packages for the back-end server.
