DEMO CASE STUDY

A manufacturer moving production planning off 1C 7

Industry: Manufacturing
Legacy system: 1C Enterprise 7 with in-house extensions

Demo case study. Illustrative scenario, not a real customer reference. Real references are provided on request once available.

Business problem

Production planning happened in spreadsheets because the legacy system could not link customer orders, bills of materials and material availability. Stock figures were corrected manually every week.

Migration

Legacy analysis of the 1C 7 database and the spreadsheet layer around it
Mapping of products, BOMs, warehouses and opening balances
Three migration runs into a test environment before sign-off
Parallel operation for one month on production orders

RATON solution

Manufacturing, Inventory/WMS and Purchasing on one data model
Production orders generated from sales demand
Material shortages visible before the order is released
AI assistant used for daily shortage and status questions

Result

Planning moved out of spreadsheets and into the platform, and stock corrections became an exception rather than a weekly routine. Figures are illustrative.

Lessons learned

Migrate the spreadsheet layer too — it holds the real process
Agree history depth early; it drives most of the effort
Parallel operation is worth it for production

Industry:: Wholesale
Legacy system:: 1C Enterprise 8, heavily customised

Ten years of extensions made upgrades impossible and every new sales channel required a custom export. Nobody could say with certainty which customisations were still in use.
