liteinventorymanagement

A CAP reference application for a lightweight local inventory system, covering goods receipt, goods issue and stock reporting by plant, running on PostgreSQL on SAP BTP, hyperscaler.

Small and mid-sized businesses without SAP ERP's full inventory management still have to track a local inventory, and this application is published as a reference for building one on the Cloud Application Programming Model. It covers visibility of local stock levels, goods receipt, goods issue, stock-level reporting by plant, an inventory manager profile and loading inventory data; its catalogue items can also be loaded from Excel and synchronised with an SAP Ariba system. The main branch runs on PostgreSQL on SAP BTP, hyperscaler, and the README says a HANA deployment means converting the database to HDB and updating mta.yaml first.
