Configuring an ERP system can be tricky
because many of the parameters interact with each other,
and you need to understand how the software works before
you actually have a chance to use it.
For example, your strategy for configuring your enterprise
organization structure can have significant impact on
the way you prepare financial statements, manage inventories,
fulfill customer orders, procure materials, manage compensation
and benefits, secure your data, and so forth. Your company
might be centralized for fulfillment of customer orders
and decentralized for procurement and inventory management.
In this example, to configure your system properly, you
will want to resolve the centralized/decentralized issues
within each application. |
