AI team · 7 agents led by Buddy
Finance, sales, purchasing, stock, HR and compliance, working off one ERP.
The AI ERP & Business Operations Team gives each department an agent that knows its part of the ERP: Finance & Accounting, Sales Operations, Purchasing, Warehouse, HR and Compliance, plus a Reporting Analyst for management packs. It uses AIAgentLayer’s ERP skills and the AIERPLayer agent, with read access by default and write actions only where you allow them.
What you get
Buddy takes the goal, hands out tasks, reviews what comes back and asks you to approve.
Goal: Close October and send me the management pack.

The problem
Why a team
ERP systems hold the truth, but people still move the work between modules and departments. An AI team does the routine reading, matching and drafting across the whole ERP, so your team reviews and decides instead of copying.
What changes
Meet the team
Every agent has one clear role, its own skills and the tools it is allowed to use.
Team lead
Plans the work across departments and checks every result. Buddy splits your goal into tasks, assigns each one to the agent whose role fits, reviews the results, sends rework and reports back. Anything risky waits for approval from the finance director.
Reconciles bank lines, reviews journals and prepares the close checklist.

Business workflows
Each result goes back to Buddy, who checks it and hands the next task to the right agent. Steps that do not depend on each other run at the same time.
Scenario 1
Starts with: You ask the lead to close the month
Finance & Accounting
Reconciles bank lines and lists open items.
Sales Operations
Finds shipped orders that were never billed.
Purchasing
Matches bills to orders and receipts.
Reporting Analyst
Builds the P&L with a note on every large variance.
The close is a review of finished work, not a week of exports.
Scenario 2
Starts with: A quote is accepted
Sales Operations
Turns the quote into an order and checks the customer’s credit limit.
Warehouse & Stock
Confirms stock and reserves it.
Finance & Accounting
Drafts the invoice when the order ships and follows up when it is due.
Cash comes in sooner because nothing waits between departments.

Creates the staff record and the onboarding tasks.
Compliance & Approvals
Checks that the contract and approvals are complete.
Buddy
Sends the manager a first-week plan.
