Here’s the typical way an ERP is deployed in an organization.
- A client contacts the Sales and Marketing department looking to buy a particular SKU on a priority basis. Via the ERP, the salesman has real-time access to the inventory stock levels
- This is kept updated by the Material management Department in ERP
- The salesman can respond to client query on time
- Suppose the SKU needs to be manufactured is required, the Sales Team updates the Centralized Database, and logs the new order in the ERP and now all departments are aware of the new order
- Production Planning Department checks ERP for order requirements
- Planning team has the Bill of Materials required for the order
- Materials Management Department maintains details of raw materials stock levels
- Data Duplication is avoided, and accurate data is made available
- The Production Supervisors update their personnel Status regularly in ERP, which can be accessed by the HR department
- If there is a personnel shortage, HR team starts the recruitment process with considerable lead time to hire a suitable candidate at market price
- Long-term, approved vendors can send invoices to ERP, which can be accessed by the finance department
- Thus, payments are made on time, and possible legal actions are avoided
