Use ERP Customization Mining (ERP-CM) to identify potential ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) app candidates for replatforming.
Replatforming is the process of scanning legacy ERP system code to find potential candidates to move onto your ServiceNow AI Platform instance as new apps. You can use data from the ERP system as a source for apps built on the ServiceNow AI Platform, improving performance, enhancing security, and reducing maintenance.  
ERP Customization Mining evaluates application candidates and presents a numeric score. The higher the score, the better the candidate is for replatforming.

* A high potential indicates that ERP-CM can immediately use remote tables and extraction tables that match the ERP model for the application candidate without making additional changes.{#work-with-candidates__high-score-def}
* A low potential indicates that the application candidate matches few of the remote tables and extraction tables in the ERP models in ERP Canvas.{#work-with-candidates__low-score-def}
{#work-with-candidates__ul-scores-high-low}

Good candidates for replatforming tend to be smaller applications that use data from the system of record.  
Note:  
If you delete a candidate from ERP-CM, it automatically reappears the next time the ERP system is scanned. Instead of deleting candidates, use the Save as potential candidate feature to organize
your candidates.

If ERP-CM shows that a candidate has a number of similar candidates, consider building one app that meets the needs of some or all similar candidates when you replatform.{#work-with-candidates__ecm-similar-candidates}
