DEFINITION AND OVERVIEW OF ERP
Definition:
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is a type of software
system that integrates various business functions into a
unified platform. It allows organizations to manage and
automate core business processes, such as finance, HR,
manufacturing, supply chain management, and customer
relationship management, in real-time using a single
database.

ERP systems are designed to streamline operations,
improve efficiency, and provide accurate insights into
organizational performance. They replace fragmented
information systems with a centralized database, ensuring
data consistency and eliminating redundant processes. Key
features typically include:

redundancies, and lowering inventory levels. Improved inventory management and procurement
processes also contribute to cost savings.
