Demand-driven ERP system, purchase Notes
Note: linkage between the demands.
In my opinion, although some ERP system is built around a one demand proceed. But the demand still exists between the interaction of a number of hard to break away. For example, when sales orders after review, how to make the procurement, materials, manufacturing and other related departments aware of the existence of this order; such as the nature of the sales for prepaid orders and purchase orders, how to control linkage through the financial sector and so on. These are related to inter-departmental, between users of the linkage relationship. How's needs, did not form a similar linkage effects, then it is clear that barriers between departments, etc. will not be through the ERP information management system to eliminate. Sometimes, even would increase. Then the firms are not shooting itself in the foot do?
So I believe that even if the purchasing needs of business-driven ERP, also to note the linkage between the effects of the various demands. Specifically, the time of purchase, to the other pre-sales consultants confirmed that the time when the documents reviewed, is there a notification action. As some demand-driven ERP will be integrated with the mail system. System administrators can specify when the document review they can send messages to the specified user notification. If this is so, even if there is no correlation in the process, but at least informed by e-mail and other means to organically link them together to form a linkage between the demands. If the ERP system has a similar function, the user reviews the document even after a month of going without notice. The system will automatically e-mail form to send notice.
Note: The best custom module with the process.
Some ERP systems, although the time is demand in the design of the core, but still will provide a custom process modules. Users can accord their own needs to define the enterprise business management processes. If digital ERP system is demand-driven however there is one of its workflow systems that can integrate with. So users can accord their own needs, the needs of their respective independent of each other combined into a management process. But unfortunately, this Digital workflow system needs to purchase additional independent.
In fact, the author is from the heart, it is quite recommended that process-driven ERP system. They often have the time in the design process embodies the core concept. For those who like to demand-driven ERP in enterprises, I think the best processes still need to pay attention to the role of ERP systems. This is mainly because the emphasis now on cooperation between departments, and sometimes a business often involves multiple departments. If there is no process on this platform, it is difficult to link them organic. If for some bad credit customers, companies may take the form of pre-collection. This ERP system may be involved in sales, production, finance, warehouse and other departments. If the nature of the sales for prepaid orders, and reasonable treatment of thought is: When the sales order review, the order will be in a suspended state. At the same time the system will automatically generate a collection of documents the nature of the financial will be the basis of this document to determine whether the customer paid. When a customer payment, the Finance staff review this document, is the sales order before formal review prior to this procurement warehouse, production is unable to follow-up action, which means only the documents that can not be able to query operation, such as generating procurement plans and production program. To complete this series of actions and control, there must be processes help. If there is no process in which the pull-pin lead, it is difficult to link them organic. Because the departments are more involved, even with the above e-mail notification feature, and there may be omissions. To this end I believe that companies purchase ERP systems, even though the selection is demand-driven ERP systems, preferably those who have to buy a custom module with process ERP software. So that some of the more complex business process integration platform. |
