Why do enterprises, especially factories, use ERP system and what are the benefits?

The advantage is more convenient! But if something goes wrong with the system, all operations will be paralyzed. There are hundreds of computers in the whole factory, each with an account number and corresponding permissions. We are all used to erp system. If the system dies, no one knows what to do. But the cost is really high. This is a myth and discredits ERP. In fact, an enterprise management tool is like a screwdriver and vice. It's just whether the choice and function of this tool are suitable for enterprises. For example, ERP is a screwdriver, but enterprises need not only screwdrivers but also wrenches. So the current situation is that ERP can't solve the actual informatization problem of manufacturing enterprises at all. Informatization of manufacturing process is the core.

A set of successful EPR links the resources of various departments of the enterprise efficiently, not just serving a certain department. In many enterprises, everything of EPR is for financial services, which leads to poor use of other departments, but hinders enterprises and leads to "death"! Every link of ERP is balanced and interrelated. Therefore, companies that have successfully implemented EPR have done solid research and management optimization in the early stage before starting to go online. After ERP goes online, there is a special person responsible for maintenance, and ERP meetings are held regularly to continuously optimize and run in, so as to make the enterprise's processes efficient. And later began to use the basic data in the system for BI analysis, which is the important use of ERP! In the early stage, ERP is used to carry the process, so that enterprises can operate efficiently, and in the later stage, basic data is used to find and analyze problems and make management decisions!

Erp is enterprise resource management, and it has no practical significance if it is a small and micro enterprise. If it is a medium or large enterprise, erp can still effectively improve work efficiency. Especially financial and material management, process standardization. For example, it doesn't matter whether the store uses a computer cashier or not. 10 chain stores without computer cashier will drive warehouses and finance crazy with low cost efficiency, 100 chain stores without erp will consume more labor costs.

It is difficult for you to implement ERP as software. If you regard ERP as an idea, it is possible to implement a culture. In addition, Chinese enterprises want to talk about these advanced things, but it is impossible for ERP merchants to think that ERP can produce results in one or two years because of incorrect orientation. Anyone who makes data knows that it is meaningless without 3-5 years of data accumulation. Therefore, ERP can only be realized if the company leaders give you at least five years' implementation cycle!

First of all, there is no ERP, but according to the ERP architecture, EXCEL can also achieve standardized management, so the purpose of the system is to liberate productivity first. However, many companies have turned ERP into a person around the system, not because the system is not good enough, but because the actual situation of most companies simply does not allow all business processes to be completed in a closed loop, which leads to the independent use of each section of the system. After spending all the money, they bought several databases and needed a lot of manpower to maintain the data. In fact, any company has the need to use ERP, but there is no suitable software version, and the implementation level has not received better service and guidance.

ERP is a management project, and technology is just a tool. You need to have a deep and extensive understanding of the customer's industry, choose a good starting point and implement it in stages. Every stage should be fruitful and bring benefits to customers as a whole, so as to bring confidence to customers and make the project implementation enter a benign channel.

Now that ERP is used to it, it doesn't work well. Push the purchase order directly from the purchase requisition, then push the inspection document, then push the receipt document from the warehouse, then push the A/P document, push the invoice, push the payment requisition, and then push the payment document from the finance department. How many purchase applications have not been placed, how many have not arrived after placing an order, how many are being sent for inspection after arrival, how many are qualified, how many are unqualified, how many have not been reconciled, how many have not been invoiced and how many have not been paid! All accounts are clear at a glance!

Whether ERP can be implemented depends on the warehouse. The warehouse data is inaccurate, and nothing is useful. Many enterprises do not attach importance to warehouse management, and think that warehouses are idle and wages can't keep up, which leads to frequent turnover of warehouse personnel and chaotic warehouse data, resulting in a large number of materials needed or not.

The situation of every industry and every enterprise is different. The management concept will change, and various problems will be found in the use of software. Therefore, ERP should be constantly improved and updated, which costs money. IT personnel and IT equipment should also be provided. These all require continuous input costs. I have met many ERP designers, who only know programming, but don't know Party A's industry. They are self-righteous, don't know how to pretend, and make a fool of themselves. The traditional ERP software is full-process management, and the process and approval are very complicated. Software is from the perspective of managers, not users. I hope ERP enterprises can recreate ERP with brand-new thinking, but in any case, simplicity is king.

What is ERP? An idea that reflects the business thinking of an enterprise. What is ERp? Promote some experiences in some areas that can be replicated (materials, production). This is the core of ERP, but do these problems really exist in our enterprise? As far as I know, it does exist, but does it need to be solved? This is the real problem! There is a saying that you can't wait to die, you have to go to bed to die. Why? For example, an enterprise that produces water cups needs to have its own workflow, including how to purchase raw materials, how to convey orders, and how to cooperate with finance. But our enterprises often rely on the personal ability of the boss. For example, for some foreign businessmen, when they need some materials, they can set up several suppliers, and then the material management personnel make purchases according to the production situation and pay regularly, but how many of our enterprises pay on time?

Traditional ERP is not good for enterprises, especially manufacturing industry. First of all, the traditional ERP can be said to be a fake ERP, under the banner of resource planning, involving only a small part of the resources within the enterprise, regardless of sales resources, procurement resources, process resources and human resources. Can ERP, which is seriously lacking, still be considered as a financial cost? As a result, many enterprises need several additional configurations to make the financial statements of traditional ERP look good. Dozens or hundreds of cost accounting statisticians manually check, record and make up orders around traditional ERP. After the actual business happens, they have to rely on a lot of manpower and time costs to complete the extra repetitive work on the traditional ERP software, otherwise there will be no real and reliable reports, which is why small and medium-sized enterprises generally can't afford to use traditional ERP, and only large enterprises and state-owned enterprises have the money to support this disguised waste. A new generation of intelligent ERP big data work platform can cover all resource information management in an enterprise in an integrated way, so as to synchronize with the actual business occurrence and workflow content, completely get rid of the loopholes of manual repeated verification and supplementary records of traditional ERP, OA and other software, and realize enterprise management to reduce costs and increase efficiency.

In my opinion, choosing ERP successfully without being dragged down by ERP are actually two key issues. 1) takes ERP as the top project. 2) ERP in manufacturing enterprises can't completely solve the problems of selecting ERP and including MES function informatization. The previous confusion is that the current ERP can't solve the problem of enterprise production. First of all, we should improve the material coding system (BOM table must be improved), secondly, the production management workflow should be clear and accurate, and finally, the approval procedures must be standardized. The system also needs good scalability, otherwise it will not be able to adapt when customers and suppliers change greatly.

The real reason why it is difficult for many domestic enterprises to implement ERP is that the older generation occupy management positions, but they are afraid of new technologies such as computers, accustomed to what they think is inertia work, have no cooperative thinking and overall view, and have not experienced all the benefits and advantages of cooperation. Now anything related to manufacturing is called ERP. In fact, many times it is just a single and manufacturing software. My previous company introduced ERP between two different subsidiaries, but one succeeded and the other failed. It is related to management, but what is suitable for A may not be suitable for B. As a result, a lot of manpower and financial resources are wasted, which leads to a fragmented situation. In addition, ERP has little to do with sales and administration.

If the name of the hospital is ERP, how to control the order, purchase, production and delivery? Do you need to set delivery time and cost calculation? In this way, the hospital is the production workshop, and the time and cost of each patient's medical treatment should be controlled. How can this be ERP? ERP is not disappearing, but being replaced. The new generation of data platform+business platform+technology platform splits the functional modules of ERP into micro-services, which operate like WeChat, without training, at a glance, and without traditional BI. Each employee's workbench has its own visualization and multi-dimensional analysis.
