What is ERP
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is a type of software that helps organizations manage and integrate their core business processes within a unified system. It streamlines operations by allowing different departments—such as finance, human resources, supply chain, and manufacturing—to share data and collaborate more effectively. By centralizing information and automating routine tasks, ERP systems improve efficiency, reduce errors, and support better collaboration across the organization.
Key Features of ERP:
• Centralized Database: Ensures all departments access the same up-to-date information.
• Real-Time Data Access: Provides live updates across departments for faster and more accurate decisions.
• Modular Structure: Allows organizations to customize the system based on specific business needs.
• Improved Collaboration: Enables better coordination across departments through integrated workflows.
• Scalability: Supports business growth by adapting to new requirements and increasing user demands.
What is Terno
Terno is an AI-powered data scientist on top of your ERP. It seamlessly integrates with your ERP to bring natural language querying, predictive analytics, automated reporting, and powerful visualizations—without writing a single line of code. Built for ease and intelligence, it bridges the gap between raw business data and actionable insights.
Metastore:
Stores domain knowledge—automatically inferred or provided by experts—to enhance SQL generation accuracy.
Supports seamless, automatic updates to the Metastore.
Captures inferred knowledge from data to improve query precision.
SQLShield:
Query Sanitization: Prevents harmful SQL execution and enforces Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) without direct database interaction.
Optimized Query Generation: Minimizes prompt size while boosting the efficiency of LLM-generated SQL.
Enterprise Security: Guards against SQL injection and unauthorized access.
Semantic Layer on Databases:
Databases are critical for organizations but are limited to syntactic searches rather than semantic understanding.
For example, searching for "blue jeans" in an e-commerce database might miss products labeled "navy denims" due to keyword-based limitations.
Terno AI addresses this with a semantic layer, enabling text searches based on meaning and similarity, not just exact matches.
Multi-Database Support:
Terno can analyse across databases. You can add as many Database connected as you want and try analyzing multiple datasource in one query.
Works with major databases like PostgreSQL, MySQL, BigQuery, and more.
Also integrate with most of the ERPs such as Odoo, .
Can work with files like pdf, csv, excel, etc.
Artifact Store:
Terno AI generates intermediate artifacts—such as datasets, machine learning models, code, graphs, and charts—to answer complex queries.
These artifacts are saved in the Artifact Store, making them reusable across teams.
This accelerates result generation and enhances data understanding within organizations.
Enterprise Tooling Augmentation:
Every organization has unique workflows, such as sending emails, calling internal APIs, or scheduling jobs.
Terno AI offers an extensible tooling augmentation layer to integrate with these processes.
For example, you can instruct Terno to—"send a report via email to my team every Monday morning."
Why Integrate Terno with ERP
ERP is indeed powerful but it often comes with roadblocks:
• Advanced features often require developer mode and technical expertise
• Creating meaningful reports or visualizations can be time-consuming and complex
• Non-technical users may feel overwhelmed by hidden settings and technical menus
• Scheduling custom reports is not straightforward and lacks a user-friendly interface
• There's no native way to export graphs or visuals without custom development
• Even small automations require multiple steps, scripts, and testing
ERP made business basics simple. But scaling smartly still feels complicated.
That's exactly where Terno steps in.
With Terno-AI, there's no need for developer mode, no scripting, and no manual report-building. Just type your request in plain English—Terno-AI handles the rest. Whether you want to visualize sales trends, predict inventory demand, or generate board-ready reports, you can do it all in seconds.
“If you simplify everything, you can do anything.”
— Bill McDermott, ex-CEO of SAP
