Stock and purchasing
Live stock levels, low-stock alerts, purchase orders, supplier records, warehouse movements and barcode support.
Custom ERP and CRM
Stock, customers and sales in one system you can trust.
Custom ERP and CRM development means building only the modules your company uses, connected to each other and to your accounting, instead of adapting your work to a large packaged suite. Kodem builds these systems module by module, so the most urgent part goes live first and the rest follows in agreed stages.
- Only the modules you need
- No per-user licence fees
- Role-based access and change history
Typical starting points
Stock and purchasingWhere spreadsheets usually fail first
Customer accountsBalances, quotes and follow-ups in one record
Management reportsFigures that no longer need month-end stitching
Why build your own
Packaged ERP runs on its rules. Yours should run on your rules.
Large ERP suites are capable products, but they arrive with hundreds of modules you will never open, licence fees for every seat and a long adaptation project before anyone uses them. Smaller packages are cheaper, yet they often leave a gap that ends up filled by spreadsheets.
A custom system starts from your departments and documents. We list who records what, who approves what and which reports management actually reads, then build modules that follow that flow. New modules are added later without rebuilding what already works.
In shortOne system for stock, sales, customer accounts and reporting, written for your process, with the number of users limited only by your organisation.
- Priced per approved scope, not per user
- No payment for modules you do not use
- Each user sees only the data their role allows
Modules
Start with one module, add the next when you need it.
Each module works on its own and shares data with the others, so the system can grow department by department.
Customer relationships
Customer records, sales pipeline, quotations, contracts, activity history and automatic follow-up reminders.
Sales and orders
From quotation to order, delivery note and invoice, with multiple price lists, campaigns and a dealer channel.
Finance connections
Links to your accounting software and e-invoicing, cash and bank tracking, and customer account reconciliation.
People and attendance
Staff files, leave and attendance tracking, payroll preparation and performance reviews.
Reports and dashboards
Live management dashboard, sales analysis, stock turnover and customer segments, exportable to Excel or PDF.
Project stages
Nothing is built before you approve the design.
Analysis and reviews run by video, with documents shared in writing at each stage.
- Process analysisWe review departments, current workflows and integration points, and deliver a written analysis of requirements.
- Module designData model, screen designs and the dependencies between modules are prepared. Development starts only after your approval.
- Build and integrationModules are delivered in contracted milestones on a preview environment, and connections to existing systems are completed.
- Training and go-liveUsers are trained by department, a user guide is prepared, and old and new systems can run in parallel before the switch.
Suite or custom
What changes when the system is written for you.
| Packaged ERP suite | Custom ERP and CRM (Kodem) | |
|---|---|---|
| Licensing | Per user, usually yearly | No per-user licence; project fee per approved scope |
| Modules | Large catalogue, many unused | Only the modules you choose |
| Workflow | Your team adapts to the product | The product follows your workflow |
| Changes | Consultants and change projects | Requested by email or WhatsApp, built by the same team |
| Languages | Depends on the vendor | English and Arabic screens, Arabic right to left |
For groups with many companies in many countries and complex supply chains, a large suite can still be the sensible choice. We will say so if that is your case.

Is this for you?
Who a custom ERP is built for.
A good fit if
- Stock, customer accounts and sales live in separate files or tools
- Your team has outgrown its spreadsheets but not your way of working
- You need English and Arabic screens for staff or dealers
- You want the same team to build, host and maintain the system
Not the right fit if
- You run many legal entities across many countries with a complex supply chain
- You want to install and manage the software on your own servers
- You plan to take the source code to another supplier later
Kodem develops your software, hosts it on servers in Türkiye and keeps it up to date. The source code stays with Kodem. Your domain is registered in your name, and your content and data are always yours.
Questions
Questions about ERP and CRM
Why build a custom ERP instead of buying a large suite?
Suites are designed for every company, so you pay for breadth you may not use and adapt your process to theirs. A custom system contains only your modules and follows your workflow. Whether it is cheaper over time depends on your size and process, which we work out with you in discovery.
Will it connect to our accounting software?
Usually, yes. We connect through the accounting system's API or a service layer, and can include e-invoicing, online stores and bank or payment records. The integration map is documented during the analysis stage. Integration with local payment providers is assessed during scoping.
How many people can use it?
There is no licence limit on users. Access is controlled by roles and permissions checked on the server, and server capacity is planned at the start of the project according to expected use.
Who uses the system, and who changes it?
Your team uses it every day; it is your working tool. Changes to how the system works, such as a new report or a new field, are sent to us by email or WhatsApp, and our team builds and releases them.
How long does it take?
It depends on the modules in scope. The schedule is split into milestones in the contract, and modules can go live one at a time, so your team starts using the first part before the whole system is finished.
Can we add modules later?
Yes. The system is designed for that, so you do not have to buy modules today for needs that may arrive next year. Each new module is scoped and quoted in writing.
What happens to our data if we stop?
Your data is always yours. If you decide to end the service, your content and data are handed over free of charge in standard formats (CSV/JSON and media files).
