SAP Business One report changes
The existing SAP Business One stayed in place; we adjusted only the reports the floor needed, so the ERP stays in use.
- Keep the ERP
- Reports
- Manufacturing
ERP integration ERP integration and custom development Keep your ERP,
and add what it is missing.
Packaged ERPs such as Digiwin or SAP Business One handle accounting and inventory well, but some workflows, reports and system connections are always out of reach. If your ERP still works, we add the missing piece beside it and connect it to e-commerce, POS, warehouse and member systems through APIs. If your processes are your competitive edge and no packaged ERP fits, we build the whole ERP around your operations.

We already have an ERP. Why would we need integration or custom development?
Packaged ERPs are strong at standard processes such as accounting, inventory and purchasing. Workflows unique to each company, such as quotations, dispatch, quality checks, distributors or online orders, are often patched with spreadsheets and re-typing. ERP integration lets the ERP exchange data automatically with other systems under clear data ownership; custom development adds the missing module beside it. In most cases the ERP does not need replacing, since replacement costs and risks are usually far higher than extending it.
Real projects ERP and integration work we have done
Extending, connecting, building from scratch: we have done all three.
These are projects we actually developed, from adjusting reports in an existing ERP to building whole systems from scratch for logistics, semiconductor, insurance and fitness businesses.
Since 2020Asialife
Omnichannel retail POS and accounting handoff
Before development we worked through tax rules and accounting handoffs item by item. Since launch it has run stably through more than one million transactions (shared by the client), and we have added multi-rate tax, a distributor model, bank payment collection and external APIs.

Since 2025Construction materials supplier
Project order management system
Project orders from intake to shipping moved into a system, with new features added after launch based on how it was used.

What we do What ERP integration and custom work cover
Your ERP stays. We fill the gaps.
We first check which interfaces your ERP exposes, then decide whether to add a module, build an integration or only adjust reports.
Workflows your ERP lacks
Quotations, dispatch, quality checks, repairs or distributor orders become separate modules that write back to the ERP.
E-commerce and POS to ERP
Orders, products, inventory and invoices sync automatically, with no more exporting spreadsheets and importing them into the ERP.
Warehouse and logistics
Picking, shipping, delivery and proof of receipt flow back to the ERP, so inventory figures come from one source.
Reports and dashboards
When built-in ERP reports do not fit, we read ERP data directly into new reports without touching the accounting.
Inventory systems for SMEs
No ERP yet and packaged ones do not fit? Start with an inventory and order system that is just enough, with interfaces ready for accounting later.
Taking over custom systems
Peripheral systems whose vendor is gone and documents are incomplete are stabilised first, then kept, upgraded or replaced.
Buy, build or connect Replace, extend or build
Packaged ERP, keep and extend, or fully custom ERP?
Most companies do not need a full rebuild. It depends on how standard your processes are and where a packaged ERP breaks when customised.
| Approach | Best for | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| Packaged ERP | Accounting, inventory and purchasing that look like most companies' | Heavy customisation is costly and may need redoing on upgrades |
| Keep the ERP and extend it | The ERP works but lacks a few workflows, reports or connections | Confirm the ERP's interfaces (API, database, file exchange) and licensing first |
| Fully custom ERP | Your processes are your edge and no package fits | Requirements take the longest; launch in phases and run old and new in parallel |
Process How we work
Map how data moves before writing code.
Integration projects stall on field definitions and data ownership more than on code. We settle those first, and every phase ends with something you can accept.
- STEP 01
Systems and workflows
2–4 weeks
List the ERP version and its interfaces, the systems to connect and who owns each field, and mark where data is re-typed most.
- STEP 02
Spec and prototype
Depends on scope
Write the API contract, field mapping, sync frequency and failure handling. Screens are prototyped and tried by staff before sign-off.
- STEP 03
Phased build and testing
3–8 months
Launch the most painful piece first and test reconciliation with real data. Run old and new in parallel before switching.
- STEP 04
Operations and extension
Ongoing
Monitor sync failures and data differences, and adjust when the ERP is upgraded or processes change. The same team stays responsible.
Pricing Price ranges
How much do ERP integration and custom development cost?
Estimates for custom projects in Taiwan in 2026. The final figure depends on the number of systems, how open the ERP is and how complex data conversion is.
| Scope | Price range | Typical content | Timeline |
|---|---|---|---|
| Requirements review | NT$100k–300k | Review of systems, interfaces and workflows, producing a comparable spec | 2–4 weeks |
| Connect one system | NT$50k–200k per integration point | Data sync between the ERP and one of e-commerce, POS or WMS | Depends on the other system's API |
| Add one module | NT$500k–1M | A tool for one workflow, such as quotations, dispatch or quality checks | 3–5 months |
| Mid-size system | NT$1M–2.5M | Multi-role, multi-workflow inventory or order system with several integrations | 5–8 months |
| Fully custom ERP | NT$2.5M and up | Built around your operations, with data migration and phased launch | 8–18 months |
Licences and API modules for your existing ERP are charged by its vendor. Post-launch maintenance is a separate agreement.
FAQ Common questions
ERP integration FAQ
We use Digiwin or another packaged ERP. Can you integrate with it?
Most packaged ERPs offer an API, database views or file import and export, but what is open depends on the version and licence. We first confirm your ERP version and available interfaces, then choose the approach; some interfaces require an extra module from the vendor.
Do we have to replace our old ERP?
Usually not. If the ERP still works, adding the missing workflows, reports or integrations costs less and carries less risk than replacing it. A fully custom ERP is worth evaluating only when your processes are your edge and no package fits.
How should we choose an ERP vendor?
First decide whether you are buying a packaged ERP or extending and integrating the one you have. For a package, go to the vendor or a reseller. For extensions, integration or custom work, check whether the partner has done system integration, can write clear API specs and failure handling, and who maintains it after launch.
What should manufacturers watch for in ERP integration?
Common gaps are shop-floor workflows such as quotations, work orders, quality checks and equipment maintenance, plus data exchange with MES and warehouses. Decide which side is the master for each record (for example, part numbers and inventory follow the ERP), then set sync frequency and exception handling so figures match.
Should an SME choose a packaged ERP or a custom inventory system?
If your processes look like most companies' and the budget is tight, start with a packaged or cloud ERP. If they are unusual, need heavy customisation, or must connect deeply with e-commerce or POS, a custom inventory system that is just enough is often better value. We evaluate this together; not every step needs custom work.
How much does ERP integration cost?
For custom projects in Taiwan in 2026: each connected system is about NT$50k–200k, a single-workflow module about NT$500k–1M, a mid-size inventory or order system about NT$1M–2.5M, and a fully custom ERP usually starts at NT$2.5M. ERP licences and API modules from the vendor are extra.
