DAT · Business Systems
ERP Systems
When stock, orders and money live in different files, the numbers never agree and nobody knows the truth. We build operational ledgers where one event updates everything it touches.
Sound familiar?
Stock the system swears you have
Overselling what is gone, reordering what is plentiful, because the ledger and the shelf disagree.
Month-end archaeology
Closing the books means a week of reconciling files that never match.
This service exists because we kept meeting these two. Here is what fixing them properly includes.
What's included.
DAT / erp-systems
Inventory truth
Stock that moves when orders do: across warehouses, channels and returns.
Purchase-to-pay
Suppliers, POs, receiving and payables in one traceable chain.
Order-to-cash
From order to delivery to collected cash, with COD reconciliation built in.
Numbers that close
Reports your accountant can trust because every figure traces to events.
How business systems work runs here
Map where truth lives
Which system owns the customer, the stock, the money, and where the copies disagree today.
Design the single record
One event updates everything it touches; nothing is typed twice.
Migrate in stages
Existing data moved and cleaned while work continues. Never a switchover cliff.
Keep the numbers closing
Reports that reconcile to events, so the figure your accountant sees is the figure that happened.
What it's judged by.
Every engagement reports these: the numbers, not the vibes.
Numbers that agree
Stock, orders and cash matching across every screen that shows them.
Time to answer
How fast "what is the status of X" gets answered without asking a colleague.
Adoption
A system nobody uses is shelfware; we measure whether the team actually lives in it.
This is for you if
- Companies whose customer history lives in five inboxes
- Operations where stock, orders and money never quite reconcile
- Founders who cannot answer "how are we doing" without a day of spreadsheet work
And honestly not, if
- Buying software to avoid fixing a process: the process comes first
- Teams unwilling to retire the old spreadsheet once the system runs
We turn down work that fits this column. It is cheaper for both of us early.
“A business system has one job: make the numbers agree with reality.”
how we run business systems
Asked about this service.
Can we keep our accounting software?
Usually yes: the ERP feeds it clean, reconciled events. Replacing accounting is a separate decision we do not smuggle in.
