In my opinion, no mail that is generated internally and automatically should
ever use a submission service. Submission service is meant for actual users
running regular mail clients. As you correctly noted, such a system should
not impersonate an user, which means it should not use a submission service.

These systems should either directly use /usr/sbin/sendmail to send mail,
or, if they are running on a different server than Postfix, they should
relay (not submit) mail through your Postfix server, and the IP address of
the server where ERP system is running should be listed in your Postfix
configuration as one for which relaying is permitted.

This way you can keep 'reject_sender_login_mismatch' or similar in your
submission service configuration and it won't touch the ERP systems at all.
