I was looking for the exact same thing at my last company, and I am starting the process over with my current employer. The one that keeps coming up in my research is a package called Compiere (http://www.compiere.org/). The software itself is F/OSS, and the company sells support, training, etc. 

I cannot endorse Compiere, as I have yet to actually try it out, but it is at least one more system that you can consider.
