Weighbridge ↔ ERP Middleware

Integration thinking for weighbridge data into ERP — physical quantity, pricing, deduction logic, and sync reliability.

01 Problem

Business Context

Weighbridge measurements must flow into ERP as trustworthy transactions — quantity, price, and deductions — without manual re-keying.

Why it mattered

Manual transfer between weighbridge and ERP invites error and dispute exactly where money is calculated.

Problem Statement

Weighbridge-to-ERP data moved manually, creating reconciliation risk on quantity, pricing, and deduction logic.

02 Solution

A middleware layer that normalizes weighbridge events and posts validated transactions to ERP with retry and error handling.

Objectives

  • Define the integration flow weighbridge → ERP
  • Map physical quantity, pricing, and deduction logic
  • Specify error handling and sync reliability
  • Reduce manual re-keying and dispute surface
