ERP - Enterprise Resource Planning. Understanding ERP System

What are the necessary skills, knowledge and attitude an ERP manager should have?

An ERP Manager must have the ability to exercise overall day-to-day control of project leaders and the resources of the program, balancing the needs for program success with the skills and capabilities of the staff. He should also be a good communicator and must interact regularly and comfortably across various departments -- from individual to the ERP Management Team level in order to negotiate solutions that foster strong relationships and continued success of the project.
The ERP Manager is responsible for the development of an effective planning process, for the creation of an integrated project schedule that encompasses all aspects for the ERP Program and for the actual execution in conformance to plans and the continuing update and adjustment of plans and execution to fit changing circumstances.

Implement and lead an effective project change management process that pro-actively identifies project changes and incorporates an appropriate impact analysis and approval for such changes across the ERP program team. He is responsible for creating and maintaining a monthly financial management process that incorporates actual financial performance to forecasted performance and justifies all variances; accurately forecasts expenditures in alignment with the project budget and supports the budgeting process throughout the project lifecycle. He also must follow the company's financial processes and policies.

Actively directs the development and maintenance of plans, practices and assignments to identify, quantify and contain the occurrence and potential impact of risks and risk events on the execution of a program and its likelihood of success.

An ERP Manager is responsible for making timely, effective decision at the project level and communicating those decisions both up and down the program structure, while approaching needed decisions in a logical and thoughtful manner and weighing conflicting information.
Leadership quality including the ability to motivate, inspire, counsel and facilitate individuals and teams to take responsibility and accountability for the goals will be an added advantage.

Purchase managed Module for purchase section

eresource ERP Purchase Module for a well-managed purchase section

eresource ERP's Purchase Management module enables the purchasing only when purchase requisitions are generated ideally through MRP run.The purchase management module in eresource ERP never encourages the buying of anything without valid requisition.

The standard purchasing flow in eresource ERP is as follows:

Orders are planned to cover customer and production requirements.
Messages are created identifying item, priority, and release timing.
Orders are reviewed; vendors, quantities, terms are changed and approved.
Orders are sent to the vendor through email.
Receiving process inbound material according to quality specifications.
Receiving routes materials based on production and customer requirements.
Accounts payable is updated from receiving process.

The procurement cycle for a service or material in our purchase management module are described hereunder:

Determination of requirements: Materials requirements are identified either in the user departments or via materials planning and control. (This can cover both MRP proper and the demand-based ap0proach to inventory control. The regular checking of stock levels of materials defined by master records, use of the order-point method, and forecasting on the basis of past usage are important aspect of the latter.) User can enter purchase requisition, or these can be generated automatically by the materials planning and control system

Source determinations: The purchasing components helps one to identify potential sources of supply based on past orders and existing longer-term purchase agreements. This speeds up the process of creating requests for quotation (RFQs), which can be sent to vendors electronically.

Vendor selection and comparison or quotations: The system is capable of simulating pricing scenarios, allowing one to compare a number of different quotations. Rejection letter can be sent automatically.

Purchase order processing: The purchasing system adopts information from the requisition and the quotation to help one create a purchase order. As with purchase requisitions, one can generate POs himself or have the system generate them automatically.

Purchase order follow-up: The system checks the reminder period one has specified and, if necessary, automatically prints reminders or expediters at the predefined intervals. It also provides one with an up-to-date status of all purchase requisitions, quotations and purchase orders.

Goods receiving and inventory management: Goods receiving personnel can confirm the receipt of good simply by entering the PO number. By specifying permissible tolerances, buyers can limit over and under-deliveries of ordered goods.

Invoice verification: The system support the checking and matching of invoices. The accounts payable clerk is notified of quantity and price variances because the system has access to PO and goods receipts data. This speeds the process and auditing and clearing invoices for payment.

common goals of ERP and TQM

Both Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Total Quality Management (TQM) share similar goals - customer satisfaction, productivity improvement, increased competitiveness, waste reduction, effort duplication and so on. ERP system will help in achieving these goals when used in conjunction with TQM.

Here ERP has the role of an enabler of the TQM principles and philosophies. ERP is also benefited by the implementation of TQM. Effective use of TQM creates better performing ERP systems. TQM brings problem solving techniques and continuous improvement opportunities for all ERP systems. The effective use of TQM helps companies obtain the maximum return on investment from expensive investments.

Therefore, the organizations applying or targeting TQM in their businesses, ERP software has become an essential necessity.

TQM is a way of life for a company. It has to be introduced and led by top management. This is a key point. Attempts to implement TQM often fail because top management does not lead and get committed but just delegates and pays lip service.

Commitment and personal involvement is required from top management in creating and deploying clear quality values and goals consistent with the objectives of the company and in creating and deploying well-defined systems, methods and performance measures for achieving those goals.

These systems and methods guide all quality activities and encourage participation by all employees. The development and use of performance indicators is linked, directly or indirectly, to customer requirements and satisfaction, and to management and employee remuneration.
