Enterprise Resource Planning SAP software solution is essential for any business to be successful. For instance, a typical enterprise business follows a process in which the customer approaches the sales team to buy any product and the sales team approaches the inventory team to check with the availability of the product, if not available it approaches the production planning team to manufacture the product.

The proction planning team inturn checks with inventory team regarding the availability of the raw materials required to manufacture the product. In case of non-availability of raw materials, the production planning team purchases the raw materials from vendors and processes the raw materials for floor execution team from the product to get manufactured. After this the finished product is forwarded to the sales team who inturn delivers the product to the customers and updates the finance department regarding the revenue generated by the sale.

The production planning team also updates the finance department with the details of raw materials purchased from different vendors for the payment to be made.

Enterprise Software Systems can be classified into two

  1. Decentralized Systems
  2. Centralized Systems ERP

The main problem with Decentralized system is that the data of one department cannot be accessed by the other departments thereby increasing the data management cost also increasing the time of data collection resulting in customer dissatisfaction hence loss in revenue generated. This will also result in the organisation losing its reputation.

These problems could be overcome by Centralized systems (ERP) where data will be stored centrally thereby enabling data access to all the business units thereby increasing productivity, quality and also increases revenue.
