Make Amazon Q act in Legacy ERP — safely

Amazon Q answers the question — Upware carries out the action inside your legacy ERP, through its own screens, with every step governed, policy-bounded, and audited.

The gap

Amazon Q stops at the Legacy ERP boundary

Amazon Q connects to many apps, but governed, auditable execution in legacy and compliance-heavy systems needs an execution layer purpose-built for it.

In practice

Posting a journal entry without touching an API

A finance analyst asks Amazon Q to post an accrual entry for a quarter-end close. The ERP hasn't had an API since 2011 and the vendor is long gone — but Upware already learned how to navigate those green-screen forms by recording exactly how your team does it. Upware replays that learned path deterministically: it opens the transaction screen, enters the amounts, and routes the entry into the approval queue, all through an outbound-only on-prem bridge that never exposes internal systems to the internet. Every field touched, every screen traversed, and every policy check applied is written to the audit trail in real time. Amazon Q gets a confirmation; your SOX controls stay intact.

The harness

AI to learn. Deterministic to execute.

Upware learns the process once and encodes it as a mostly-deterministic workflow: system interactions replay exactly, and any LLM steps are wrapped in policy, verification, and audit — so execution stays governed and drift-proof.

O
Observe & Learn
Records the real workflow once, across every system it touches.
G
Generate
Builds the API, data flow, and logic automatically — no integration project.
E
Encapsulate
Wraps it as a governed AI skill over secure MCP or API.
R
Run
Executes deterministically — RBAC, audit, and scale built in.
FAQ

Common questions

Our legacy ERP has no API and no vendor support. Can Upware still connect Amazon Q to it?
Yes — this is exactly the case Upware was built for. Instead of relying on an API, Upware records how a human operates the system: the screens, the UI events, the underlying web requests where they exist. It generates an integration from that recording and encapsulates it as a governed AI skill. No API, no vendor involvement, no custom scripting required.
How does Upware keep financial actions in the legacy ERP compliant with SOX requirements?
Upware enforces RBAC so only authorized roles can trigger specific actions, and it wraps every execution in a policy layer that can require verification steps before posting. The on-prem bridge is outbound-only, so sensitive financial data never leaves the network perimeter in an uncontrolled way. A complete audit trail records exactly what was executed, when, and under whose authority — the evidence you need for SOX reviews.
Will Amazon Q be making live decisions inside our ERP, or is Upware controlling what actually runs?
Upware controls what actually runs. Amazon Q interprets the request and calls the appropriate Upware skill over MCP or API, but the system interaction itself replays deterministically — no LLM is navigating your ERP screens at runtime. This separation means the governing logic, the access controls, and the audit trail all sit in Upware's execution layer, not in the LLM, which is where enterprise and compliance teams need them.
