Nori or SAP Business One

SAP Business One is an ERP for small and midsize businesses, bought and implemented through a partner. Nori can work next to it or be your ERP.

Two paths

Keep SAP and add Nori

SAP keeps the books and the master data. Nori runs the counter, the route sales app and the warehouse, and posts every sale and payment through Service Layer. The connector is included in the Nori license.

Run Nori as your ERP

If you are just choosing a system, or SAP is more than you need, Nori covers sales, purchasing, inventory, production and accounting in one place.

SAP Business One is a better fit if…

  • You have subsidiaries in other countries and your head office already runs SAP.
  • Your manufacturing is complex and you want a partner nearby to implement and support it.
  • You need add-ons from SAP's partner network built for your industry.

Nori is a better fit if…

  • You sell over the counter or on routes and want the POS and the app in the same system.
  • You want to pay for each license once, with published prices.
  • You already have SAP: Nori connects and your cashiers need no SAP license.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use Nori and SAP Business One at the same time?

Yes. SAP keeps the books and the master data, and Nori posts sales, payments and inventory movements through Service Layer. The connector is included in the Nori license.

Can Nori replace SAP Business One?

It can. Nori has general ledger, banking, purchasing, inventory and production. If you consolidate several companies or your head office runs SAP, keep SAP and connect Nori.

How much does SAP Business One cost?

SAP does not publish prices. Licenses and implementation are quoted by a certified partner.

Do my cashiers need an SAP license?

With Nori, cashiers and sales reps sign in with their Nori user, and Nori connects to SAP with an integration user. Check with your partner what your contract requires.
