An ERP is easy to install and hard to live with. I build and re-engineer ERPNext for year three, not go-live day: new implementations, QuickBooks and Xero migrations, ZATCA e-invoicing, and rescuing ERPs which management no longer trusts. 🏆 27 implementations across 7 countries. Top Rated with 100% Job Success. I'm a PwC-trained, CIMA-qualified CFO turned Frappe engineer, so I build the system and read the ledger it produces. That's why companies hire me when their ERP was built fast and wrong. 🚨 IS YOUR ERPNEXT IN TROUBLE? - Finance exports to Excel because the reports don't reconcile - Stock value doesn't match the ledger - Sales, inventory and accounts tell different stories - Month-end close takes days, not hours - The consultant vanished after go-live Two or more?
