Workspaces
Corporate edition
Core plus the base ERP system for organization, products, sales, orders, approvals, payments, and cash flow.
Corporate combines the Core platform with Pikbase's base ERP system. It is a strong operational starting point for a business application, not a promise that every possible ERP domain is installed.
Base ERP scope
The edition includes the shared currency, geography, address, and contact foundations needed by the business model, together with:
- organization charts, organizational units, employees, roles, positions, and access policy;
- products, product variants, brands, units, pricing, and sales structures;
- sales and order records with their workflow-driven lifecycle;
- approval flows and human tasks assignable through roles and positions;
- payments, accounts, transactions, and cash-flow foundations;
- the entity definitions, permissions, functions, workflows, document resources, and reference data required by those domains.
This gives teams a coherent base on which to build company-specific screens and processes instead of beginning with disconnected tables.
Deliberate boundary
Stock and warehouse management, expenses, human resources, production, operations, and CRM are not included in the Corporate edition. They are separate capabilities that can have their own product variant, subscription, installation, and lifecycle. Describing its ERP scope as a base system keeps this boundary visible and avoids presenting the edition as a full, all-module ERP suite.
Corporate also does not include the delegated tenant, registration, subscription, billing, and metering system used to operate a SaaS product. Choose SaaS for that backend. Choose Core when you want to define the business domains yourself.
Build the frontend
Follow Build a React app from npm with
--profile corporate to connect a frontend to your ready Corporate workspace. The
profile uses the workspace's installed ERP contracts; generating the app does not
install or upgrade the backend edition.
Pikbase provides React boilerplates, including Vite SSR and Next.js starters, and reusable React packages for schema-driven forms, data tables, references, workflows, authentication, storage, and application composition. These frontend tools are available alongside the edition; they do not change the ERP backend scope or move business rules into the browser.
