Keep the commercial chain visible from supplier to customer.
The common platform can connect purchasing, supplier terms, warehouse receipts, stock, transfers, pricing, quotations, orders, customer credit, collections and finance. Import requirements can add foreign-currency obligations, shipment evidence and landed-cost treatment where included in scope.
Use engineering for the exceptions that matter.
External logistics, customs processes, e-commerce, route sales, barcode devices or legacy integrations should be assessed individually. Hybrid ERP does not treat every external process as a reason to rebuild the core.
Test the system with a difficult order, not only a clean demo.
Include a partial receipt, landed cost, stock shortage, credit hold, return or delayed collection. Those are the cases that show whether the controls will work after go-live.
