How important is ERP training and education?

All users of the ERP system should be trained properly in using the system to its fullest. Different groups of people in the company will have different training needs. Managers need more focus on the decision-making and analysis features of the system while the clerical staff need more focus on how to perform their jobs. But all the users must be trained in the ERP basics, overview of the system and its working, how an action by an employee triggers a host of events throughout the organization, how automation will help, what processes are changed and so on.

Educate everyone so that they understand what is going to be achieved with the new system. Additional education should include total quality management and change management strategies. Also the training sessions should be used to gain acceptance for the ERP system by dispelling the myths about ERP. When the employees do not understand what the new system is and what is supposed to do and how to operate it, they will not use it or use it incorrectly. This can lead to failure of the system. Best option is to train department managers in how to use the system and have them train the users.

Why some companies are still using legacy systems?

Legacy systems utilize outmoded programming languages, software and/or hardware that typically are no longer supported by latest ERP software.

Legacy systems are still used by some companies because they think a change over may cost them lot and potential risk of business interruption associated with the movement of data and key business processes to more advanced and contemporary technologies.

We have seen number of companies still heavily reliant on decades-old legacy systems. Further complicating the situation, many of these companies has been built through a series of mergers often must manage a variety of incompatible legacy systems inherited from their predecessor organizations.

In general, legacy systems tend to be given inadequate resources for their proper maintenance, even when an upgrade to contemporary technology is not being contemplated seriously. The blame must go to the decision makers in the organization and the non-technical executives who tend to assume that they can continue to run on the cheap, and underestimate the risks of taking this approach.

What is Vendor-Managed Inventory (VMI)?

Vendor-managed inventory (VMI) is a process where the manufacturer generates orders for the distributor based on demand information sent by the distributor using Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system . During this process, the manufacturer is guided by mutually agreed objectives for inventory levels, fill rates and transaction costs.
VMI is a planning and management system that is not directly tied to inventory ownership. Under VMI instead of the distributor monitoring sales and inventory for the purpose of triggering replenishment orders, the vendor assumes responsibility for these activities.
In the past, many manufacturers operated vendor-stocking programmes where a representative visited a distributor a few times a month and restocked their suppliers up to an agreed level. VMI replaces these visits with information gathered from cash registers and transmitted directly to a manufacturer's computer system via ERP. Now, manufacturers can monitor sales of their products and decide when to initiate the replenishing procedure.
To understand VMI, let us look at to business models:
The Conventional Business Model: When a distributor needs a product, they place an order against a manufacturer. The distributor is in total control of the timing and size of the order being placed. Under this model, the distributor maintains their inventory plan.
Vendor Managed Inventory Model: The manufacturer receives electronic data that informs it about the distributor's sales and stock levels. The manufacturer can view every item that the distributor stocks as well as the true point of sale data. The manufacturer is responsible for creating and maintaining the inventory plan. Under VMI, the manufacturer generates the order, not the distributor.

How can we keep our ERP database protected at all times?

How can we keep our ERP database protected at all times?

With advanced administration techniques and redundant server set-ups, you can ensure that your ERP database is available and readily accessible at all times. By monitoring performance around-the-clock, system administrators can immediately identify and troubleshoot problems, to prevent productivity slow-downs caused by down time. Additionally, mirroring your ERP database using redundant servers can provide a much-needed backup that can be utilized in the event of a major system failure.
Security measures
There are many steps that can be taken to improve the security and protection of your ERP database. For example, role-based IDs and passwords will ensure that users can access only the data they are authorized to view, based on their job function or position within the company. By making users change their passwords on a regular basis, you can add an additional layer of security. And, data encryption, firewalls, and other measures can help you keep hackers, cyber-criminals, and other outsiders far away from your ERP database.
Disaster recovery
Without a solid, well-designed back-up plan in place, natural disasters such as flood and fire can bring permanent loss of the mission-critical information contained in your ERP database. We always advice our customers to have a mirror-server located in a different location to avoid such a drastic situation.
Apart from this, ERP database should be backed up at least once a week, although daily back ups are recommended and offer the most protection, to an off-site location. ERP systems such as eresource ERP is also equipped with auto recovery system.
So, the most important thing to remember when putting measures in place to protect your ERP environment is to not only safeguard the ERP database and related systems, but to secure all other systems that share information with it.

What are the reasons for ERP system failure?

What are the reasons for ERP system failure?


ERP solutions are designed for a large audience of companies looking to achieve success by following a template of best business practices. However, the system often fails to achieve its promise because people who are supposed to be the main users of the systems reluctant to change their attitudes.
This leads to costly program modifications to replicate those processes. This, in turn, can result in unnecessary manual tasks and issues of software maintenance, which neutralize the original benefits of the software.
When making an ERP software selection, examine the processes encoded in the software. If you can agree to model your company's best practices based on those processes, you're choosing the right solution. If you can't, continue looking.
Once the ERP system is chosen, it's not uncommon for management to turn the project over to a subordinate to manage the implementation. The problem is that the subordinate, who is usually chosen from the end-user base or IT department, typically isn't given the authority to implement necessary business process changes.
Project management is a discipline, which requires the ability to delve into detail while keeping a perspective on the original business objectives. The project manager needs to have the ability to overcome impasses through a judicious combination of political guile and management direction.
The most successful ERP projects are led by a member of the management team who has actively participated in both the software selection and implementation efforts. When selecting your project manager, choose the one who has the most to gain from the ERP system.
