EVENT DESCRIPTION
ERP and why do you need it?
ERP stands for enterprise resource planning. It’s software that manages a company’s financials, supply chain, operations, commerce, reporting, manufacturing, and human resource activities. Most companies have a finance and operational system in place, but most other software out there can’t go beyond everyday business processes or help with future business growth. As companies expand and their needs change, their systems should keep up with them. We’ll define what ERP is and why it’s smart to have software in place that keeps up with your business needs.

Business functions benefit from ERP
ERP can cover many core functions across your organization—helping break down the barriers between the front office and back office while offering the ability to adapt your solution to new business priorities. Some of the key business functions include:
Commerce
Today’s retailers face many challenges, and an ERP system can deliver a complete, omnichannel solution that unifies back-office, in-store, and digital experiences. Customers will get a more personalized and seamless shopping experience through AI recommendations, while retailers are able to increase employee productivity, help reduce fraud and grow their business.
Finance
Modern ERP will help you increase profitability while driving compliance. It offers dashboards and AI-driven insights that give you an overview of your finances to help you tap into real-time information anytime and anywhere. It should also help you cut down on entering information manually by automating daily tasks and include tracking abilities that help with your business’s regulatory compliance.
Human resources
Modern solutions offer ways to manage company data and streamline employee management tasks like payroll, hiring, and other duties. You’ll be in a better position to help retain, recruit, and empower employees while also tracking employee performance and identifying HR problems before they happen.
Manufacturing
This function improves business communication, automates daily processes through robotic process automation, and offers manufacturers the ability to fulfil customer needs and manage resources by accessing real-time data. This solution also optimizes project and cost management as well as production planning.
Supply chain
If your company is still entering information by hand and trying to track down stock in your warehouse, you can easily save time and money by automating these processes with ERP. Modern solutions also offer dashboards, business intelligence, and even Internet of Things (IoT) technology to help you get a handle on your stock management.
