- Renaming, colors and content are configuration.
ERP, PLM, CRM and documents keep provenance and version.
Narrow beats complete
A buyer does not need the factory view, and a store manager does not need the CFO view. Ten focused Super App beat one universal portal.
The demo ships ten: buying, pricing, planning, supply chain, clienteling, customer service, factory, marketing, CFO and command center.
Restrictions are part of the app
Authorized users are listed per app with their limits: geographies, product categories, read-only or write, budget and operating window.
A second approver can be required above a threshold.
One design language
Every Super App wears the same Artiplane skin, so moving between apps costs no learning.
Names, colors and layout are changed in the Control Plane, with the change logged.
