Extend SAP Business One without rebuilding it
Certified add-on modules cover the gaps standard SAP B1 leaves open — document management, advanced reporting, mobile sales and warehouse scanning — without custom development.
Not every requirement justifies custom development. For well-defined needs — scanning inventory on a warehouse floor, giving field sales a mobile order app, generating board-ready reports — a certified add-on is usually faster, cheaper and safer than building from scratch, because it's already been through SAP's own certification process.
We evaluate, license, install and configure add-ons against your actual workflow, and stay responsible for how they behave alongside the rest of your SAP B1 environment — so you're never stuck between two vendors when something doesn't add up.
The categories we deploy most, matched to your operations
Document management (DMS)
Capture, store and retrieve invoices, PODs and contracts directly against SAP B1 records.
Advanced reporting & BI
Dashboards and drill-down reporting beyond standard SAP B1 query views.
Mobile sales & CRM app
Field teams place orders, check stock and capture visits from a phone.
Warehouse & barcode scanning
Handheld scanning for receiving, picking and stock counts, posted live to SAP B1.
Fixed asset management
Depreciation schedules, asset registers and disposal tracking integrated with finance.
Bank reconciliation & payment automation
Automated bank feed matching and payment file generation.
What changes for your business
Faster than custom build
Certified add-ons deploy in days against a proven feature set.
No core-system risk
Add-ons are built to SAP's certification standard, so they don't destabilise your core.
Lower total cost
Licensing an existing module is almost always cheaper than building and maintaining the same feature.
Upgrade compatibility
Certified add-ons are tested against new SAP B1 releases before you have to worry about it.
How a distributor's field sales team went mobile and cut order lag from days to under an hour
What two certified add-ons changed without a single line of custom code.
Background
Field sales reps wrote customer orders on paper during visits, handing the forms in at the end of the week for office staff to type into SAP Business One. Warehouse stock was counted manually with a clipboard once a month, requiring the warehouse to shut down for two days each time.
The challenge
- Orders typically sat for two to three days before being entered into the system, creating stock allocation conflicts and delaying invoicing.
- Paper order forms were occasionally illegible or went missing entirely between the customer visit and data entry.
- Monthly manual stock counts shut the warehouse down for two full days and still produced frequent count discrepancies.
- Sales management had no same-day visibility into what reps had actually sold — only what had been typed in by the following week.
The solution
A certified mobile sales app was deployed to field reps, letting them place orders and check live stock from the customer's site, synced directly to SAP B1. A certified warehouse scanning add-on replaced the clipboard count process, with receiving, picking and cycle counts posted live to SAP B1 without requiring the warehouse to close. Both were evaluated and configured against the team's actual workflow rather than installed with default settings.

SAP Business One add-on modules: frequently asked questions
The questions that come up before licensing a certified add-on.
What's the difference between a certified add-on and custom development?
A certified add-on has already been through SAP's own certification process for a defined feature set, making it typically faster and cheaper to deploy than building the same capability from scratch.
Will an add-on still work after we upgrade SAP Business One?
Certified add-ons are tested against new SAP B1 releases as part of their certification, which is the main practical advantage over an uncertified or custom-built equivalent.
Can add-ons be removed later without breaking our core SAP B1 data?
Certified add-ons are designed to sit alongside core SAP B1 data rather than restructure it, so removing one shouldn't put your underlying records at risk — though this is confirmed for each specific module before installation.
How long does it typically take to deploy an add-on module?
Most certified add-ons deploy in days rather than weeks, since the feature set is already built — the time goes into configuration against your workflow, not development.
Can multiple add-ons from different vendors run together?
Generally yes, since certified add-ons are built to work alongside SAP B1's core rather than against each other, though combinations are checked case by case before deployment.
What happens if an add-on vendor stops supporting their product?
This is checked as part of evaluating any add-on — vendor track record and SAP partner status are part of the selection criteria, specifically to avoid being left on an unsupported module later.
