• ERP deliversa single database that contains all data for the
software modules across an entire company. People in
different departments all see the same information and can
update it.
• Computer security is included within an ERP system to protect
against both outsider and insider crime
26.
• ERP systemstie together varied processes using data from
across the company. For instance, a typical ERP system
manages functions and activities as different as the bills of
materials, order entry, purchasing, accounts payable, human
resources, and inventory control, to name just a few of the
modules.
• ERP software combined the data of formerly separate
applications. This made the worry of keeping information in
synchronization across multiple systems disappear. It
standardized and reduced the number of software specialties
previously required.
27.
• ERP systemsallow companies to replace multiple complex
computer applications with a single integrated system.
• ERP systems replace two or more independent applications
and eliminate the need for external interfaces previously
required between systems and provide additional benefits
that range from standardization and lower maintenance to
make reporting capabilities easier.

• There areseveral disadvantages to enterprise
resource planning:

$30,000 - $500,000, depending on the size of the company.

also be costly for any business.
• Consultants may need to be used for installation or to maintain
the ERP.
• Employees may need to be trained in ERP so they can fully utilize
the system. Training times takes away from work time and can
also cost additional funds.
29.
Disadvantages

company’s work force.
• Enterprises view cutting training funds as a way to cut costs.

means their ERP system is often operated by personnel with
inadequate education in ERP and the ERP vendor package being
used.
• Proper training of the workforce is dependent to success with
ERP.
• New employees must be trained before they can properly start
working because of the ERP system
30.

become more efficient. They may feel resistant to change which
can be a negative.
• Bugs!
