Introduction

ERP Software System


Short for Enterprise Resource Planning, a business management system that INTEGRATES all facets of the business, including activities such as inventory control, order tracking, customer service, finance and human resources.
The initials ERP originated as an extension of MRP (Material Requirements Planning; later Manufacturing Resource Planning) and CIM (Computer Integrated Manufacturing). It was introduced by research and analysis firm Gartner in 1990. ERP systems now attempt to cover all basic functions of an enterprise, regardless of the organization's business or charter. Non-manufacturing businesses, non-profit organizations and governments now all use ERP systems
