The same system, seen from your chair
There is no separate NG One for distribution and another for manufacturing. There is one system and two ways into it: by industry — what your company does, and by role — who answers when a number is wrong. The same modules, rules and data sit behind both.

Two ways in, one system
An industry edition usually means a branch of the code that falls behind the core. Here the difference is the way in, not the product.
When an ERP is sold as 'the manufacturing solution', the customer gets an installation that evolves separately. For the first year that is an advantage, because everything is set up; after that it is a cost, because every core upgrade has to be merged back into the branch that holds the changes. NG One does not take that route: the core stays clean and an industry setup is versioned configuration beside it — configured rather than compiled. A core upgrade cannot overwrite your changes, because your changes are not in the core.
These pages therefore describe a different path through the same product, not a different product. The industry answers what happens in your company every day and which modules carry it. The role answers what you personally do in the system — a CEO, a CFO and an IT lead look at the same data, but not for the same reason and not with the same exposure when the numbers disagree.
If you recognise yourself in both, read both: moving from 'those are my problems' to 'that is my chair' is exactly the path this decision takes.
By industry
What your company does every day, which flow carries it, and where the time goes today.
Distribution and wholesale
One stock position, one discount policy, and collection that starts before dispatch.
Manufacturing
Bill of materials, work order and product cost in one chain — from plan to posting.
Retail and eCommerce
Store, web and ledger on one stock position — from costing to fiscal receipt.
Services and projects
From quotation to collected invoice — no break in the chain, no spreadsheet alongside it.
Accounting agencies
One system, the whole client portfolio — and an upgrade you run once.
By role
Who answers when a number is wrong, what they need from the system, and what the current system costs them in time.
Chief financial officer
One ledger for the law and for the decision — with an explanation you read, not reconstruct.
Owner and CEO
From change to decision — with cause, consequence and evidence on one screen.
IT and CTO
API-first, clean core and an exit that exists — architecture without lock-in.
Roles are not permissions. These pages describe the work a chair does; what anyone may do in the system is decided by six layers of authorization, not by a job title.

One sentence about your industry and your scale is enough to make the first reply useful rather than introductory.
