SAP & Microsoft Business Central
Your ERP runs the business. Your customers never see it. We build the front-end they do, plus the automation and dashboards around it.
SAP and Dynamics 365 Business Central are excellent systems of record and poor customer experiences. We build the customer-facing portals, automations and dashboards on top of them, at no upfront cost, without changing the core ERP or the partner who supports it.
What we hear from SAP and Business Central businesses.
Built outside the core, connected through the supported APIs.
What we deliver
Account-specific prices and stock, ordering, order tracking, invoices, statements and returns, all live from the ERP.
Purchase orders, delivery confirmations and invoice submission straight into SAP or Business Central.
Capture from any channel, validate, price and post to the ERP without a human re-keying it.
Live sales, margin, cash, stock and service dashboards built for the people who use them, not exports.
Web shop, CRM, couriers, payment, marketing and finance tools connected to the ERP in both directions.
Simple mobile screens for engineers, drivers and pickers that talk to the ERP in real time.
In plain English
Customising inside SAP or Business Central is expensive, needs specialist partner time and often breaks when the system is upgraded. Building a separate front-end that talks to the ERP through its supported APIs keeps the core clean, lets you design around your customers rather than the ERP’s screens, and costs you nothing upfront with us.
Why we.simplify
Our team spent years delivering enterprise software and integration for global brands before we founded we.simplify. We know how SAP and Business Central behave in the real world, and we know what customers want from the front-end.
Everything is built outside the ERP and connected through supported APIs, so your partner, upgrades and audits are unaffected.
Security, testing, documentation, monitoring and change control come as standard, because the ERP behind it demands it.
The portal is built at no upfront cost. You pay a flat monthly fee for hosting, support and improvements over a flexible minimum term agreed upfront. Prefer a one-off build? We can quote a fixed price instead.

FAQs
No. We build outside the core ERP and talk to it through its supported APIs (SAP OData and BAPIs, Business Central web services). Your ERP partner, upgrades and support arrangements stay exactly as they are.
SAP S/4HANA, SAP ECC and SAP Business One; Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (cloud and on-premises) and legacy Dynamics NAV. If your system has an API or a database we can read, we can usually build on it.
You can, and for some businesses it is the right answer. Partner modules tend to carry licence fees per user, follow the ERP’s screens rather than your customers’ needs, and are quoted as large projects. We build the front-end your customers actually want, at no upfront cost, for one flat monthly fee.
Typically: see live stock and prices specific to their account, place and track orders, download invoices and statements, raise returns or tickets, and approve quotes. Everything reads from and writes back to the ERP, so there is one source of truth.
That is usually the goal. We pull live data from the ERP and other systems into dashboards built for the people who use them: sales, finance, operations and the board, with the right level of detail for each.
Weeks, not months. You review working versions every week, and the timeline for your first portal is in the written scope agreed before we start.
