You definitely didn't buy "all source". There's still a software key.

Are you sure? What John R. describes sounds a lot like what we've got
where I work, except our starting code base was a different ERP than
BPCS. I am not aware that we have any key. Granted, my knowledge of
that kind of stuff is limited, so maybe we do, but it's hard for me to
imagine that, because like John R., we seem to have severed all ties
with the vendor (which I believe is no longer in business anyway), and
we've migrated the software to newer midrange systems a few times
without much incident.

We probably had to sign some kind of agreement not to resell it, but
it does seem like we have all, or substantially all, the source. And
over the years, our company has customized it to the point where it's
barely even recognizable as a vendor product.
