Abstract: Against the global digital transformation of small and micro-enterprises (SMEs), the low adoption rate ( 60%) of traditional ERP systems have become bottlenecks for SME management upgrading. This study takes the “Qi Weijie” lightweight ERP system as the research object, conducts empirical analysis based on 15 SMEs across manufacturing, service, and retail sectors, and explores the influence mechanism of three core adaptation elements—scale adaptation, cost control, and ease of operation—on ERP application effects. A “Lightweight ERP Selection Scoring Model” with 10 quantitative indicators was constructed via Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), and its prediction accuracy was verified (in-sample R² = 0.85, out-of-sample R² = 0.80). Empirical results show that: (1) Scale adaptation has a significant positive impact on ERP application effect (β = 0.65, p
