What changes for this team

configured at rollout

Practical training uses consumables, workshop materials and administrative packs alongside institutional service commitments. This system can coordinate that operational work and its finance while learner progress and awards remain in the academic platform.

Workshop readiness

Plan real material needs, inspect required incoming stock and retain the product unit used by the workshop. Actual pack assembly follows its bill of material and recorded component use.

Institutional contracts

Keep genuine service or goods commitments distinct from student-account rules. Retain reviewed source references for reconciliation without importing assessment or learner-welfare information.

Operating cost

Follow accepted workshop purchases and actual material use into the books. A course schedule can provide planning context without serving as evidence that supplies were received, consumed or paid for.

Common questions

All questions
How do I get started?

Click Start now, then use Proto to configure Education & School ERP for your business. Set up your workflows, import your data and invite your team.

Related question
Can we roll out one company or process first?

Yes. Plan a phase around a defined entity and process, with clear ownership of the work that remains in other tools. Reconcile the opening position, integrations and handoffs before launch; retire the old tool for that scope after its outstanding work is accounted for.

Related question
Does every company need the same currency and calendar?

The design supports entity-specific functional currencies and accounting calendars. Group reporting needs explicit period mappings, translation policies and ownership methods. A locked consolidation retains those choices and its source amounts so a later change cannot silently rewrite the result.

Related question
How do quotes become orders and invoices?

The accepted offer carries its approved prices, discounts and revision into the order. Invoice allocations retain the source quantities and net amounts so conversion cannot apply a discount again. A contract billing cycle selects an order-led or direct-invoice route and retains that identity to prevent duplicate billing.

Related question
Who approves purchases and payments?

Every purchase order needs an eligible approver who did not prepare it. The Buyer or Controller acts within the specified authority. A Controller releases a payment run within their limit and independently of its preparer and included bill approvers. Delegation requires the necessary role and never removes those independence rules.

Related question
Can sales and finance see individual salaries?

Access to individual pay, national IDs and employee bank details is restricted. Sales roles do not receive it, and administrative access does not override the restriction. Finance review can use payroll totals and reconciliation evidence; authorized HR and payroll roles retain the detailed access needed for their work.

Related question
Which banks and tax services are connected?

Connections are implementation work and depend on the selected provider and country. Confirm the supported formats, identity, acknowledgements and reconciliation behavior during rollout. A payment-file acknowledgement is distinct from settlement, and a configured tax code is not evidence of filing coverage.

Related question
Can we bring existing orders and balances?

Yes, through a planned and reconciled migration. Preserve source identifiers and partial processing history so an already received, shipped, billed or paid amount cannot be processed again. Opening stock, ledger, asset, leave and payroll balances need controlled imports with clear posting boundaries.

Related question
Can assistants approve or release work?

Assistants can prepare drafts, propose matches and collect evidence within their assigned access. Required human approvals stay with the accountable role. They cannot bypass document review, payment release, credit controls or sensitive employee access.

Related question
Can we change the system after rollout?

Use Proto to propose changes on a branch and review them before release. The process owner should check changes to posting, permissions, payroll or approval rules against existing transactions and the agreed operating policies. Machine work and model usage remain metered.
