A digital twin of an organization (DTO) is a digital replication of an organization used to analyze weaknesses in business processes and support operational decision-making by simulating different scenarios. As a key enabling technology of DTO, business process simulation provides techniques to design and implement simulation models that replicate reallife business processes. Existing approaches have been focusing on providing highly flexible design tools and data-driven evidence to improve the accuracy of simulation models. Provided with such tools and evidence, business analysts are required to reflect comprehensive aspects of reality with subjective judgments, including the design of ERP systems and the organizational interaction with the system. However, given the complexity of ERP systems, it is infeasible and error-prone to manually incorporate the business logic and data restrictions of the system into simulation models, impeding the faithfulness and reliability of the following analysis. In this work, we propose a framework to integrate ERP systems in business process simulation to overcome this limitation and ensure the reliability of the simulation results. The framework is implemented in ProM using the SAP ERP system and CPN Tools.
