The value of ERP
The value of ERP in several ways.
ERP of the most intuitive of several elements for us to see the performance of delivery from 70% to 90% and the procurement plan has greatly improved level of well at the same time, after about two years time, the stock increased to 98% accuracy.

BI and ERP implementation to maximize the value of information
As a business in terms of art, ERP to achieve the enterprise's inventory management, but the introduction of BI for the enterprise in terms of what kind of value? Vikram said art market, it is a relatively thin market, and our main target is the painter and the Enlightenment education. One is the high-end market a belongs to low-end market. Is not very noticeable in the domestic and foreign large stores, it has a lot of cultural features, such as McDonald's will be equipped with certain drawing board and so on. After the enterprise in the implementation of BI the main use of BI to conduct multi-dimensional analysis of the market. Has now reached a multi-dimensional analysis of the market is mainly based on degree of brands and two of the region to analyze the market.

BI in the enterprise are very valuable. At home, we will analyze more dimensions, brands and regions, it is necessary, consumer groups, professional standards, sales of the season, the color, etc.; 2, as the art business, what is the color used most frequently? White up to Why is white? This must have data to analyze. This dimension is in accordance with BI to analyze and these data in the ERP where the data if you do not "take out" will not be able to achieve the data analysis. BI gives a very scientific answer.

So how ERP and BI integration? They played in the enterprise, what role? Vikram think there should be two methods of this convergence: BI and ERP must be completely non-front link, if you can not seamless chain link, then do not to data sharing. Secondly, BI ability of data mining must be self-definition, this is what we call, SOA service-oriented, customer what is required is necessary to define the needs of the customer. Allow users to define their own, users can dig out of it worthwhile.

At present, the implementation of the BI is not perfect, Vikram analysis: "BI is developed, but now BI have done quite shallow, only a dimension analysis, it still has some room for maneuver." BI is to help to conduct transaction analysis, ERP and BI then what kind of difference? Their internal relations are reflected in what areas? For this, Vikram vivid metaphor: "ERP where the data, we call records, BI is a" baskets ", through screening before called the information that should be valuable. BI for us, there is two direct effects: identification of next year's marketing budget, but not exclusively, it can. First to do next year's sales forecast, the second, Mao the determination of interest rates which will sell the most profitable is not necessarily the most which had to sell, which make money out of the screening, there is not to make money, but also take the initiative to give up. We used to have a product that is creating marketing, where we the more extensive on-line ERP has just more than a year down and a settle accounts lose money. With the BI can be analyzed later on these matters. Change the mode of re-forecasts. there is no time BI software, ERP is only concerned about the marketing of products, but from the profits of point of view, it is not a thorough analysis. With the BI after the high-profit products which is forecast to next year, mainly to do? or the amount of money to do anything, can give some auxiliary support.

ERP to provide basic data using BI to analyze these data the final decision-making for the enterprise to provide a most valuable basis. I believe the integration of ERP and BI, enterprise development will provide more favorable protection.
