SAP remains the core ERP system and financial data source; the automation layer supplements the workflow and handles steps that occur before, during, or after ERP transactions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The key difference is: <\/span><b>Automation is not a standalone accounting system that competes with SAP.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.
