Law firms and corporate legal teams run their real work — matters, hearings, deadlines, billable time, and privileged documents — in a scatter of spreadsheets, shared drives, and calendar reminders, while ERPNext handles only the accounting tail. ERPNext core has no concept of a legal matter, a court hearing, or a billable-hour rate card tied to a specific counsel. You can bolt matters onto Projects and hours onto Timesheets, but there is no case lifecycle, no hearing calendar with conflict warnings, no per-case document repository with role-scoped access, and no clean path from tracked time to a client invoice. That gap is where missed hearing dates and unbilled hours quietly cost the firm money.

ECOSIRE builds a proper Frappe app — installed on your bench alongside ERPNext, not a fragile set of manual customizations. At its core is a Legal Matter DocType carrying the full lifecycle (intake, active, on-hold, closed) via a workflow, linked to Customer (client) and to counsel User/Employee records. A Court Hearing DocType models each hearing or court date with jurisdiction, court, next-date, and outcome fields, surfaced on a Frappe Calendar view and driven by scheduler events (scheduler_events in hooks.py) that fire reminder notifications ahead of every date. Billable work is captured against the matter through ERPNext Timesheet integration with per-matter and per-counsel rate cards, and a whitelisted server method rolls approved hours straight into a Sales Invoice. A Case Document child structure plus the Frappe File attachment layer gives each matter its own repository, with hooks.py doc events (before_save, on_submit) enforcing status transitions and stamping audit trails.

Technically, everything is native Frappe so it upgrades cleanly and stays maintainable: DocTypes with controller classes for validation, hooks.py document events and server scripts for lifecycle rules, client scripts for in-form guidance (conflict warnings when two hearings collide, auto-population of court fields), Role Profiles and permission rules so partners, associates, paralegals, and billing staff see only what their role allows, and the standard Frappe REST API plus @frappe.whitelist() methods so the firm's website intake form or a client portal can create matters programmatically. It targets Frappe/ERPNext v15 and v16.

Because this is build-to-order, nothing is a generic download. We start with a short scoping call to map your matter types, jurisdictions, billing rules, and roles, then build the app to that specification, test it on a staging bench, and run UAT with your team before go-live. Typical delivery is one working week from confirmed scope. You receive the installable source, documentation, a training session, a post-go-live support window, and the git repository so the code is fully yours.
