This is a fairly opinionated ERPNext App that automatically turns your ZenHub Sprint into a Project on ERPNext.
Well, we wanted to move our internal time tracking to ERPNext because our currently solution was really just okay.
The idea is to use our Desktop Time Tracking app to connect to ERPNext, so that we can pull tasks and track time against them.
Firstly, we have some labels we use on our GitHub Issues that we're gonna use to map some ERPNext features.
Client: [Client-Name]Priority: [Low/Medium/High/Urgent]
This is the mapping that happens between Zenhub + Github and ERPNext :-
- Each Issue is a Task
- Each Epic is a Parent Task with Tasks under it
- Each Client is a Customer
- Each Sprint (Milestone) is a Project
- However, if you're using the client label, the script will create separate projects for each client, and one catch-all project for issues without a client
The Script deliberately only pulls issues that have a milestone, this is to reduce clutter
There are some Custom fields that also get injected, here's the extra data you'll also get in the Task Document
- Estimate
- Github Issue Link
- GitHub Sync ID (Hidden)
- GitHub Issue Number (Hidden)
The subject field of "Task" has a limit of 140 characters, so, when pulling from Github I truncate it to 140 characters max. However, the full issue title gets stored in a custom field called "Issue Text".
