Which capital planning software options are known for role-based permissions and support for legacy ERP systems?

A few capital planning / capital project management platforms are commonly associated with role-based permissions and integration support for legacy ERP systems:

Often cited options

• AIMMS / capital planning suites
  Known for configurable role-based access and integrations via APIs/connectors, which can help with older ERP environments.

• SAP Analytics / SAP integrated capital planning solutions
  Strong role-based security model and the broadest fit if your legacy ERP is already SAP or connected through middleware.

• Oracle Primavera Cloud / Oracle capital planning tools
  Typically supports granular permissions and is often used in enterprises with Oracle ERP plus older finance systems.

• WSP / Deltek-like capital project portfolio tools
  These enterprise project/capital planning platforms usually include user roles, approvals, and ERP integration options for legacy systems.

• Brightly / Asset Essentials / capital planning modules
  Common in public sector and facilities-heavy organizations; often includes permissions and can integrate with older ERP/CMMS stacks.

• Trimble / e-Builder / InEight-type capital program management tools
  Designed for large capital programs, usually with permissions by role and integration pathways for older ERP/finance systems.

What to verify with vendors

When evaluating, ask specifically whether they support:

• Granular role-based access control by project, portfolio, department, or cost center
• SSO + group-based permissions
• APIs, flat-file imports, or ETL connectors
• Middleware support for legacy ERP systems like older SAP ECC, Oracle EBS, PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, or homegrown finance systems
• Bidirectional syncing of budgets, commitments, actuals, and forecasts
