Conceptual confusion in this ERP either-ERP
After these years, the spread of ERP vendors, ERP concepts can be said to have become deeply embedded. Speaking of ERP, are now very few business executives still do not know. If we then asked what ERP is used, possibly the vast majority of people think that ERP is only a warehouse management accounts or management of material systems. This is the past few years ERP vendors promoted by the ERP concept, but the concept seems to have become deeply embedded, and say that one moment that the General a heard of ERP naturally thought of financial and Warehouse.
ERP reduced to such an extent that it can not be said that ERP tragedy. In fact ERP was originally the concept has a very clear, not all can be called the ERP management system, and only reach a certain technical indicators and related functions can be referred to as ERP. Lot of today's enterprises to the financial system or ERP system and the Warehouse to equate the real concept of ERP have been lost in the clutter of numerous discourses, and no one will be concerned about what the real ERP, which seems not to matter.
The ERP as merely financial, warehouse used by the system, primarily the use of ERP in recent years is related to the status quo. While the ERP vendors have done a lot of effort, but at present the use of ERP business case, is basically just the financial management and inventory management applications was relatively good. In such circumstances, some manufacturers also may not be the intention to succeed, in order to promote the purpose of also as much as possible emphasis on financial, inventory and other functions, the goal of guiding people's concern about the application of these directions, which confused the ERP that a complete concept.
We know that finance and warehouse is essentially the implementation of enterprise level, in the overall management level is still relatively low, and basically can not represent the ERP features. Financial management and warehouse management and data-processing-based more suitable for the present ERP data processing of the long entry so the application of the enterprise is relatively better enterprises to implement ERP to adopt a common plan, focused, Division implementation approach, to complete the application of financial and Warehouse there is nothing wrong, but as part of the overall planning, we should emphasize the global nature of ERP, while emphasizing the basis of the overall situation up prominent local feature, and this part will still be with for the whole service.
In the ERP application can not break through the current difficult circumstances, but also some companies eager to play "beyond ERP" and even "the end of ERP" slogan, but some of the features in the ERP based on the details of a breakthrough to hype some of the concepts. Just think, even the ERP itself is not well realized, how to talk about "beyond", he talks of an "end", that is a joke. In fact, the theory on the ERP, the is no problem, otherwise, how can get so much recognition of the management elite. However, ERP now really needs a breakthrough, I think that first of all be a breakthrough in theory.
After years of development, the current understanding ERP and what we had already made great progress, but by no means the financial management or inventory management and ERP equated. If the ERP manufacturers just ERP purely as a product to promote the concepts and tools; or anyone else involved is happy to talk about on a number of minor changes, but as the focus of the promotion deliberately guide customers, so to do, ERP pattern can only be getting smaller and smaller, it is not just my own for the ERP sad. |
