From SAP to kivitendo ERP
summary
A case study of a company that migrated from kivitendo ERP to SAP ByDesign and then back to kivitendo, arguing that open-source ERP can outperform proprietary systems on cost and flexibility. Describes concrete work: a migration for a ~50-employee joint-stock company, custom print templates implemented with LaTeX modules and user-defined variables, a later banking/payment integration, and trial bookkeeping of a large-year dataset for validation; lists missing modules (asset accounting, travel expenses, tax-audit export) and shows how report packages and template logic add process intelligence without changing core code.
