Lidl tried to switch to SAP, keeping their own processes and customising SAP to fit their needs.

After seven years and 500 million euro spent, the project was cancelled and they went back to using their old inventory system.

So, in this case, customising SAP to fit the company's processes wasn't worth it even for a rather large company like Lidl.

Oh yeah, Lidl is such a great example of what not to do when it comes to ERP systems!

If memory serves well, Liqui Molly had similar, but cheaper, experiences with Microsoft.
