Extend Business One for Singapore and regional operations

MERP is a low-code extension and integration platform for SAP Business One, which remains the financial and operational core. MTC configures workflows, system interfaces and mobile operations for the Singapore entity, its headquarters requirements and the systems already in use.

MERP in a Singapore SAP architecture

MTC uses MERP to connect local workflows, interfaces and mobile work to the Singapore entity’s business processes and its headquarters systems.

Singapore operating companies

Distributors, manufacturers, trading companies and service businesses can add local workflows, system connections and mobile execution to SAP Business One, creating an integrated process from transaction entry to financial posting.

International groups operating through Singapore

Japanese, US, European and other international groups can connect local applications and execution processes to group data, approval and reporting requirements without rebuilding the headquarters template inside every subsidiary. MTC documents the interface and localisation design for each market.

China-headquartered groups using Singapore as a regional hub

MERP can support interfaces between the Singapore company and the group SAP environment for master data, orders, inventory, finance and management reporting. The design can be discussed with Singapore users and the China headquarters team in the same project.

Configured workflows and connections for Business One

MTC configures MERP functions, screens, mobile transactions and interfaces around the company’s operating process, with postings and master data connected to Business One.

Low-code configuration

Configure document layouts, reports, menus, permissions, approvals and notifications around the day-to-day Business One process. Consultants can adjust these elements without repeating custom development for every change.

Reusable industry functions

MTC combines reusable MERP functions for distribution, trading, manufacturing, projects, leasing or field service, then maps the data, decisions and exception routes used by the operation.

System integration

Exchange customer, supplier, order, inventory, production and finance data between Business One and CRM, SRM, WMS, TMS, MES, collaboration, banking or group systems. MTC designs each interface around available APIs, posting rules and reconciliation requirements.

Mobile operations

Bring receiving, delivery, stocktake, production reporting, approvals, inspection and inventory enquiry to the point of work, then write completed transactions back to the corresponding Business One documents.

Configured MERP functions by business requirement

MTC configures relevant MERP functions for the customer’s industry processes, management requirements and Business One environment.

Collaboration and approvals

Email, approval and workflow tools used around the ERP process

During blueprinting, MTC assesses the available APIs, files and middleware, then documents data mapping, error handling, reconciliation, monitoring and support ownership.

Record work where it happens

Mobile functions support warehouse, production, field and approval processes where a desktop transaction is impractical. They use the validation and posting rules of the corresponding Business One process.

Warehouse and production

  • Purchase receipt and return
  • Sales delivery and return
  • Inventory movements and stocktake
  • Production goods issue and receipt
  • Work-order and labour reporting

Management and quality control

  • Sales-order entry
  • Inventory enquiry
  • Document approval
  • Quality inspection
  • Transaction traceability

A maintainable extension architecture

The technical design separates the ERP record, MERP logic and interfaces, with monitoring and support ownership assigned for each connection and workflow.

Business One transaction foundation

MERP connects financial postings, master data and operational documents in Business One with the workflows and systems around them.

MERP application and configuration layer

MERP supplies configured screens, workflow logic and reusable functions for the company’s industry operations.

Supported integration routes

MTC uses DI API, Service Layer and the interfaces available in surrounding systems to exchange transactions and status data.

Roles, audit and exception handling

The solution includes user permissions, approvals, transaction logs, traceability, exception queues and reconciliation tests.

Implementation scope

  • Map the Business One functions already in use and identify the workflow or integration work MERP will deliver.
  • Assign master-data ownership and document source and target fields, posting rules, interface frequency and error handling.
  • Review API availability, transaction volume, user permissions and cross-border data requirements.
  • Test complete business scenarios, including exceptions and reconciliation, before production release.
  • Document monitoring, support and change procedures for each extension and interface.

Review an extension or integration requirement

Provide the current Business One process, surrounding system and required operating result. MTC will map the requirement to Business One configuration, MERP functions and interfaces, then propose the delivery plan.
