If your IT staffs can export the ECC or HANA database and restructure and rebuild them in PostgreSQL so that they absolutely are in at least third normal form, you permanently unlock your organization and run PostERP instead.

If your IT staffs can't do it, it's not because they are incompetent, but because someone bought the wrong software being so complicated that its vanilla manufacturing edition has as many database tables as more than 13,000, which nobody dare to guarantee being third normal form compliant.

In contrast, the PostERP Universal Manufacturing Edition has fewer than 400 PostgreSQL tables in at least third normal form, most of which being in fifth normal form.

Replacing SAP manufacturing and distribution applications with PostERP Universal Manufacturing Edition

Having migrated a few really useful datasets out of your 13,000+ SAP tables to the PostgreSQL database with less than 400 tables underlying the PostERP Manufacturing Edition, your end users can immediately operate PostERP in place of SAP.

Replacing other SAP applications with PostERP ERP applications

After you have migrated a few datasets that really are useful out of the database used by the SAP application not for manufacturers to the tiny PostgreSQL database in third and higher normal forms, your end users can immediately start to use PostERP CRUD screens, which your users' favorite browsers automatically and dynamically create, to perform CRUD operations on all of these tables.

Your auxiliary systems such as MES, WMS and AI tools can immediately start to exchange datasets with PostERP by

✅︎ calling PostERP API to perform CRUD operations on the underlying PostgreSQL tables and call PostgreSQL functions and procedures. The lightweight PostERP server automatically forwards all API calls to PostgreSQL. You don't need to write a single line of code to work behind API unless you want special effects to occur with the CRUD operations. In such cases, PostgreSQL's triggers and rules are usually sufficient to meet these specific needs.

✅︎ calling libpq to directly and reliably access your PostgreSQL database at the highest possible speed.

With the CRUD screens automatically generated for end users, your IT staffs will then reproduce SAP's legacy functionalities in PostERP by manipulating PostgreSQL database as follows and attach them to CRUD screens for your users to invoke.

If your organization is in the sectors such as military and defense that prioritizes security the highest and wants to ban TeraRows from peeking your top secrecy and to avoid being locked in by TeraRows, you can simply buy the source code of the low-code PostERP framework smaller than 20 MB in size after compressed, and sever the tie with TeraRows forever.
