Sales, purchases, stock, the bank, GST and payroll run on one set of books, which is what an ERP is. It leaves out what a large company's ERP is built for, such as planning production across several plants. **Do I need a consultant to set it up?** No. Start on a demo company, then create your own: its country sets the tax, and your lists and opening balances come in from a spreadsheet. **Can I move from Tally?** Yes - export the trial balance, the masters and what is still open, and bring them in. The comparison page shows each step.
