How we set it up

Four steps, on your own data.

01

Find what repeats

We sit with your team and list the work done the same way every week.

02

Agree the rules

Each rule in plain words: when it runs, what it checks and who approves.

03

Test on your data

We run it on a copy of your system until the results are right.

04

Switch it on

It runs by itself, every run is logged, and we adjust it as you go.

Always in control

Automatic, never out of hand.

A person where money moves

Payments, discounts and purchases above your limits wait for a yes.

Every run on record

What ran, when and what it changed, kept against the document.

Change it yourself

Rules, approvals and reminders are set from the screen in ERPNext, not in code.

Do we need a developer to change a rule?

No. Approvals, notifications, reminders and repeating documents are set up from the screen in ERPNext. We show your administrator how.

What should not be automated?

Anything that needs judgement. We automate the steps around it and leave the decision to a person, with everything they need in front of them.

Can it work with WhatsApp and M-Pesa?

Yes. Reminders and confirmations can go out on WhatsApp and email, and M-Pesa payments can be matched to invoices. Each connection is scoped in your project.
