When you switch to a new ERP system it is both dangerous and expensive to take your customisation with you in the new implementation.
Here’s a few practical steps to consider if you want to leave your customisation behind.
- Find the overlaps
Over the years, the standard functionality has grown significantly. Many functions that were missing at that time are now part of the standard solution.
- Check your business needs
Part of your current customisation was implemented back then because of best practices, certain rules and specific legislation. Are they still relevant today?
- Old habits
Not rarely, customisation was chosen because it was possible. Or because colleagues were used to work in a certain way. But are they still working in your organisation?
- Standard add on’s
Today, there are add on solutions available that solve specific industry challenges. You can exchange customisation for these standard solutions that are tested, stable, well documented and actively supported.
After all, you can’t do today’s job with yesterday’s customisation and still expect to be in business tomorrow!
