So, Just what

is ERP?

Software that runs your business.

It automates your warehouse enabling you to bar code - picking, packing, put away and stock check.

Does it do

You can capture your customer’s signature and hey presto download the proof of delivery from the web.

SURE.

But how does ERP help my business?

It holds all your company’s data:

One version of the truth … so all your business divisions: finance, sales, operations, etc. allwork from and make decisions on the same data.

AND NO MORE STICKY NOTES NEEDED.

No more voicemails, emails, just an instant message from one colleague to the next.

So, ERP is ...

• Integrated software that manages your entire business

• Manages the information and process flow of each division

• All users accessing the one database

Your business working together as one unit.

Now that’s real time collaboration.

Does it make tea?
