Enterprise Resource Management (ERP) software can significantly enhance the efficiency of a business. It is designed to improve information flow among the various parts of an operation, allowing each department as well as the business as a whole to function more effectively.
What is revolutionary about ERP is the fact that it is one overarching program designed to meet the needs of many different departments. The flow of products depends upon the flow of information. Overall, ERP systems help businesses to better meet their customers’ needs at every point in the production and distribution process.
ERP can also enhance the flow of money within a business. Payroll is easier and faster to process when this department has access to schedules, clock hours, overtime, and other data from all other departments within the company. ERP also streamlines the management of budgets, accounts payable and receivable, and other financial functions; in addition to performing these tasks more efficiently, this system reduces the amount of paper accounting and thereby limits the opportunities for human error.
