ERP application or into the era of mobile commerce
Throughout 2009, the most exciting is that everyone3GDevelopment of network technology. This not only brings users a new experience, but will also give enterprise the information management has opened up a shortcut. As in the traditional ERP system uses the process, always subject to various restrictions. One of the biggest constraints than the constraints of the network cable. ERP systems can only use the computer terminal. Away from the computer end-user will not be able to access information. Although the adoption of mobile commerce platform to a certain extent, improve the situation. But we all know, mobile commerce platform, access to information and functionality is limited. If a sales staff travel again, the want mobile commerce platform to the trouble of orders is very cost is very high. However, the emergence of 3G technology, it is possible to change this situation, so that the real from the ERP system, network without wires.
ERP Analysis: ERP systems have not yet truly out of cable restraints
Although the help of mobile commerce platform, can to some extent through the mobile phone and other end-users with the ERP system to deal with. However, due to a variety of reasons, its function to a large extent restricted. Such as information flow costs, the amount of data transfer, etc., are impossible to determine the user through the arbitrary use of mobile phones and other platforms ERP system. In reality, work, mobile commerce platform, only to be able to complete the simple information query, a simple document review, or police and other activities. And want to complete the document input, report query, and so work is also impossible. And such is the volume of business users in the bulk of their daily work.
In short, ERP network lines and computer terminals for the dependence of this contradiction in the actual work is growing. Because of this dependence requires that all operators must be in a particular location, with the specific equipment to be able to access ERP system to complete the related work. This greatly limits the ERP system stability. Especially those who travel out of the employees, their ERP system is difficult to enjoy the value. In short, even with the help of mobile commerce platform, ERP system is still unable to achieve the "anywhere" in practical systems.
Then the root causes of this conflict lies in what? I believe that lays in the way of information transmission costs. Mobile Commerce is also possible to pass through the cell phone network data. However, its speed is slower, so a one-time transfer of data is not a lot. At the same time subject to bandwidth limitations, its data transmission costs are relatively high. Such as through a traditional mobile commerce platform, the passing of data is very limited. Therefore, its only a tiny fraction of the completion of the ERP functionality. Let the true sense from the network cable out of the shackles of ERP, the primary problem is to solve this data transfer problem. In other words, the mobile phone can also be in a relatively short period of time received a lot of information, but the cost of this information transmission is relatively low. Then can a true ERP system from the shackles of cable, move up.
