AI Automation
How does AI automation change an ERP?
Most ERPs record what people did. With trained AI agents inside, the ERP starts doing part of the work. This is where Techrish is different: we build agentic workflow automation into the system you already use.
Invoice and data entry
agents read supplier invoices, receipts and forms, then create draft entries matched to purchase orders for a person to confirm.
Approvals
agents check a request against your rules, flag anything unusual and route it to the right approver with a short summary.
Inventory forecasting
agents study sales and stock movement to suggest reorder points before shelves run low.
Smart reports
ask "which customers are overdue this month?" in plain language and get the answer from live ERP data.
Chat assistants inside the ERP
staff ask how to raise a credit note or where an order stands, without leaving the screen.
Workflow automation
follow-ups, reminders and hand-offs between departments run on their own, with a log of every step.
Every agent works with human review where money or compliance is involved, and senior engineers set up and supervise each one.
Why customize an open-source ERP instead of buying off the shelf?
Off-the-shelf ERP asks you to bend your process to fit the software. Open-source ERP lets the software bend instead. You start from proven modules for accounting, inventory, sales and HR, then build only the parts that make your business different. We keep those parts in separate, version-controlled apps so the core stays clean for future upgrades.
How does a Techrish ERP project work?
Map the work
We sit with your teams, walk through real transactions and mark where the standard ERP fits and where it doesn't.
Design the fit
You get a written scope: what we configure, what we build, which agents we add, and what we deliberately leave alone.
Build and test
Senior engineers build in small releases on a staging copy, so your team tests with real data before anything goes live.
Launch and improve
We go live, train your users, watch the first cycles closely and keep refining the agents as they learn your patterns.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. OpenERP was renamed Odoo in 2014, and the product has grown a great deal since then. Many businesses still run an old OpenERP version that no longer receives updates. We can review that system, move your data and custom features to a supported Odoo release, or advise whether ERPNext fits better.
Yes. Custom modules and apps are delivered into a repository you control, with documentation, so another team could maintain them later if you chose. We build changes as separate apps rather than editing the ERP core, which keeps ownership clear and upgrades simpler. [confirm: code ownership terms in standard contract]
Yes. Trained AI agents connect to your existing Odoo or ERPNext through its APIs, so you don't need to start over. We usually begin with one high-volume task, such as invoice entry or approval routing, prove it works with your data, and then extend the agents to other workflows.
It can if it is done by editing core files. We avoid that by keeping customizations in separate modules, using the extension points each framework provides, and testing on staging before every upgrade. When a new version changes an API, we port the affected code as part of the upgrade.
Cost depends on how many modules you need changed, how many systems must connect, and how much data is moving. We give a written estimate after the Automation Opportunity Review, once we've seen your processes, so the number is based on your scope rather than a generic package. [confirm: pricing approach]
Agents only get the access their task needs, and actions involving payments, postings or compliance wait for a person to approve. Every agent action is logged with a timestamp and the record it touched. Hosting can stay on your own infrastructure or a cloud account you control.
