<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">Fibre2fashion, the largest global textile, apparel and fashion B2B portal is launching Soft-Tex 2012 - a 180 days long, 24x7 online information technology (IT) trade fair. This initiative from fibre2fashion will help the IT and IT enabled solution providers connect with the worldwide textile, garment, fashion and retail industry. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Keeping itself updated with the latest in IT solutions is very crucial for the textile value-chain, considering that it is an intensive process driven industry. Soft-Tex 2012 will help the IT industry to showcase their software & solutions to a large target audience of IT service users in the global textile, clothing, fashion and retail sector. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The beauty of an online trade fair is that, it does not come with a travel, time or money constraint. It can be accessed by anyone across the globe, either from the comfort of their home or office 24x7. The online visitors can directly access the information available related to IT products, solutions or services on display in the online expo. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To add an icing to the cake, Soft-Tex 2012 would provide a highly effective communication tool, which would help online visitors and exhibitors to connect with each other and respond to queries raised by visitors. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Fibre2fashion with a legacy of over 12 years and a visitor base exceeding 1.5 million per month from over 190 countries across the globe will ensure that Soft-Tex 2012 gets prime visibility among the core audience of IT solution users in the textile value-chain through marketing and promotional activities. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The online initiative will be ably supported by a print supplement which will reach out to Chief Information Officers and Information Technology Heads in the worldwide textile, apparel, fashion and retail value-chain.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Who Can Exhibit:</b> </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you’re an IT solutions provider currently catering to or with plans to provide solutions and services to the worldwide textile, garment, fashion and retail sector or IT companies having software solutions like ERP, Business Intelligence Tools, POS, RFID, SCM, CRM, CAD/CAM, Dyeing & Printing, Import Export Management, Inventory Control, Production Planning and Warehouse Management solution providers. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Why an online trade fair scores over a conventional trade fair:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The visibility of an online trade fair is 24x7, while a conventional operates as per a fixed timing. Soft-Tex will run for a period of 180 days, while conventional fairs run for a limited period, which can provide unparalleled visibility. An online trade fair has a wide geographical reach with no boundaries, whereas a conventional is more localised and boundary bound. <a href="http://www.fibre2fashion.com/news/company-news/fibre2fashion/newsdetails.aspx?news_id=111604&page=2"><span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>Click here for more details</b></span></a></div>

Or call up a stock status report and print a copy from wherever you are? Tally.ERP 9 has been designed with you in mind. Powerful connectivity makes information available with your staff, CA and other professionals, round-the-clock, in any place. It's also quick to install and allows incremental implementation-a novel capability that lets you activate just as many of its functions when required, even across locations.<br /><br />At Tally, we have a hard-earned reputation for empowering businesses with stable, effective software products and Tally.ERP 9 takes this further. Tally.ERP 9 has all the features required for high-performance business management including remote access, audit & compliance services, an integrated support centre and security management, all focused on delivering peace of mind. It is a complete product that retains its original simplicity yet offers evolved capabilities like statutory processes, payroll, excise etc. Whatever the demands, Tally.ERP 9 makes life a lot easier. With an ideal combination of function, control and customisability built in, Tally.ERP 9 permits business owners and their associates to do more.<br /><br /><strong>Advantages of Tally.ERP 9:</strong><br /><br />• Powerful remote capabilities that boost collaboration<br />• Easy to find qualified personnel<br />• Easy to customise<br />• Low cost of ownership via quick implementation, Tally Integrator, Support Centre…<br /><br /><strong>Remote Access in Tally.ERP 9<br /></strong><br />The concept of 'remote' arose from the limitations on business owners and staff from traditional software systems that seriously restricted what could be done, when it could be initiated and by whom, from outside their offices and factories. More often than not when a business closed for the day its data was effectively locked. (The same effect when the owner went home or travelled outside the city.) The revolutionary Remote Access in Tally.ERP 9 makes regular functions available outside the physical confines of the premises.<br /><br /><strong>How Remote Access works:<br /></strong><br />Imagine you need to access your data when you’re not in the office. Tally.ERP 9 Remote Access lets you field supplier calls from home (or any place else with an Internet connection), check Bank balances, view your financial commitments and check on receipts due before making a commitment to pay. It even allows you to review entries posted and make necessary corrections. Or keep personal books of accounts at a separate location and access them when it’s convenient… for office-augmenting ability, nothing beats Tally.ERP 9.<br /><br /><strong>Simple. Activate in seconds :</strong> </span></div><span style="font-family:arial;"><div align="justify"><br />All it requires is that you start up your company and make it available to a specific user, who can then access the data from his/her copy of Tally software (which can even be the free-of-cost Educational version) after furnishing his/her user name and password.<br /><br /><strong>Bring in the specialists—access your CA:</strong> </div><div align="justify"><br />Similar remote access can be made available to your CA, who can log in remotely and provide you with immediate consultation on tax filing, auditing, compliance etc. without the need for you to send the data or for him/her to visit your office.<br /><br /><strong>Highlights:</strong><br />• 24 x 7 access<br />• Full control and security<br />• Quick business decisions<br />• Better compliance </span></div><br /><br />Source:<br />Name: Tally Solutions Pvt.

On-demand software sees firms effectively rent the software on a monthly basis whilst it is remotely delivered and managed by the provider<br /><br />Wilson said the NetSuite for Manufacturers software could also be seen as a direct competitor to the Microsoft ERP platform that targets SMEs in the manufacturing sector.</font></div><div align="justify"><font face="Arial"></font> </div><div align="justify"><font face="Arial">Source : computerweekly.com</font></div>Akshayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12916890014175976914noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925693286217891947.post-67611795024935864182008-06-20T21:58:00.000-07:002008-06-20T22:04:18.115-07:00SYSPRO ERP is Product of the Year Finalist<div align="justify"><span style="font-family:arial;">SYSPRO a provider of visionary ERP for the manufacturing pragmatist, said today that SYSPRO software has been named one of five finalists for Channel Insider’s 2008 Product of the Year in the category of ERP. This is another major new honor for SYSPRO. The finalists were selected by a Channel Insider team of experts based on vendor nominations of products in twenty-six categories, including ERP. Nominated products must have been released or significantly upgraded last year. Value Added Resellers will vote for the winners in each category and the winners announced the third week of April.<br /><br />Last year, SYSPRO added extensive functionality to its ERP software across all areas – Financial, Distribution and Manufacturing – as well as new customization capabilities and new modules. The numerous technological enhancements include a new user interface that is flexible and adaptable and which empowers users to tailor the product to suit their needs. SYSPRO also unveiled:<br /><br />- SYSPRO Reporting Services, a next generation reporting tool that incorporates an embedded version of Crystal Reports XI;<br />- The second module in a series of three Inventory Optimization solutions designed to improve business forecasting and leverage Lean Manufacturing principles;<br />- SYSPRO Projects and Contracts that provides greater operational control and profit optimization capabilities to mid-market manufacturers;<br />- Electronic Signatures to authenticate operators as transactions are being processed.<br />- Microsoft Office Integration</span></div><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:arial;"><br />The impressive list of SYSPRO feature enhancements extends throughout the product from improved financial visibility and expanded multi-site management to accurate control and costing of co- and by-products. Additional functionality in the traceability of items further strengthens the SYSPRO offering for specific vertical niche markets such as pharmaceutical, medical device and electronic manufacturers.<br /><br />According to Todd Perlman, Principal with Business Technology Partners, a SYSPRO reseller based in Chicago, “It does not surprise me that SYSPRO has been chosen as a finalist in the ‘Product of the Year’ category. In the nearly 12 years that I have been supporting the product, I have watched it evolve into one of the most complete ERP applications in nearly every facet. The company’s dedication to its customer base is very refreshing in this industry…a dedication that is seen at all levels from first level support to development to the top executives.<br /><br />“SYSPRO has kept on the leading edge of technology while maintaining the core product functionality. With the .NET version introduction a few years ago and the continued development of Microsoft-centric applications, we are able to deliver a total solution to our clients. We are confident that we are delivering a best of breed application.”<br /><br />SYSPRO’s more thoughtful approach to adopting new technology, such as web services and SOA platforms, also reflects the desires of its buyers who are driven by business needs and not by the latest headlines. This exemplifies SYSPRO’s ongoing strategy of helping to simplify the success of its customers. SYSPRO calls its buyer landscape “PragmaVision,” ™ consisting of pragmatic, visionary ERP executives that are driven by a desirefor smart, but aggressive market growth.<br /><br />Source : SYSPRO </span></div>Akshayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12916890014175976914noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925693286217891947.post-19353311020110201932008-06-19T01:44:00.000-07:002008-06-19T01:46:01.113-07:00CJ Apparel Group, LLC To Implement Jesta I.S.'

The new software significantly extends the company’s top-down project planning and risk measurement capabilities, handling chips designed in nodes down to 45 nm. Numetrics’ approach to project planning and risk measurement is unique in the industry and gives a powerful boost to the customer’s revenue, profits and market share. Projects finish on-time, within budget and with competitive cycle times, which is why six of the top ten semiconductor companies use Numetrics’ ERP software.<br /><br />Packed with dozens of new features, this next generation release of NMX-ERP incorporates a new rich-client graphical user interface, a new project plan synthesis engine, an XML interface to integrate with other enterprise tools, and Numetrics’ eighth generation IC (Integrated Circuit) design complexity calculation engine.<br /><br />“The semiconductor industry misses product development 89% of the time, and when they miss, they miss big, with the average chip design taking six to nine months longer than anticipated,” said Ron Collett, Numetrics’ president and CEO. “The cost to cost to semiconductor companies is staggering, and increasing design complexity threatens to make the problem worse. NMX-ERP 3.0 is a culmination of nearly two years of effort by our development organization and a significant leap forward for our customers. Our solution is truly unique because it is the only one that accurately measures IC development schedule risk and exposes overly risky project plans by benchmarking their underlying assumptions against industry norms and past performance.”<br /><br />NMX-ERP Release 3.0 includes a range of new features including the following:<br /><br /><strong>1)</strong> <strong>Complexity Calculation Engine</strong>: Eighth generation of Numetrics’ patented complexity calculation engine leverages in-depth data mining of past generations of process technology nodes to establish a quantitative relationship between process node maturity and chip design complexity. The engine is calibrated on Numetrics’ full industry database of 1200 IC projects and support design styles including SoC, analog and mixed-signal, RF, ASICs, ASSPs, and advanced processors.<br /><br /><strong>2) Project Plan Synthesis.</strong> New project plan synthesis engine generates estimates of duration and staffing required in each major phase of the IC development cycle. Users can perform “what-if” simulation on each phase, modulating either the duration or staffing to see the impact on the other.<br /><br /><strong>3) XML-interface:</strong> NMX-ERP 3.0 now offers enterprise-wide integration options for collecting, reporting, and archiving customers’ valuable project data. With the newly released XML schema, customers are able to rapidly exchange data between NMX-ERP 3.0 and their internal systems.<br /><br /><strong>4) New GUI:</strong> New Java-based, rich-client, graphical user interface further enhances the usability of Numetrics tools. Dozens of new features were added in this release to allow users to customize reporting and viewing of the data.<br /><br />Pricing typically ranges from $35,000 to $95,000 per IC project, depending on the project’s complexity and size. NMX-ERP 3.0 is delivered as Software as a Service (SaaS), or for users who prefer a pure turnkey engagement, Numetrics also offers professional services<br /><br /><strong>About Numetrics Management Systems, Inc.</strong><br /><br />Numetrics provides a unique suite of enterprise resource planning (ERP) software to semiconductor companies that enables unprecedented predictability of development schedules, reliably measures project schedule risk, and benchmarks development performance against the industry’s best-in-class. In use by six of the top ten semiconductor companies, the solution leverages Numetrics’ patented IC design complexity calculation engine, which is calibrated with statistical data from more than 1,200 benchmarked chip projects compiled from nearly 40 semiconductor companies. The Numetrics’ NMX-ERP™ solution enables superior project schedule estimation, risk analysis, resource planning, execution pipeline analysis and benchmarking.

It will be the first of several Microsoft-hosted Dynamics enterprise applications products, Ballmer said.<br /><br />"You should expect to see more from us in ERP and other areas as we move into the future," he said.<br /><br />Ballmer's statements contradicted those of corporate vice president Michael Park, who denied any Microsoft-hosted ERP plans last week. Park told TechTarget that "the architecture we're making the [hosting] bet on is CRM. With ERP, we've got a good number of partners who are hosting it for us."<br /><br />Dynamics CRM Live has some Microsoft partners worried about competition with their own hosted CRM services. The prospect of Microsoft-hosted ERP isn't causing the same concern -- at least not yet -- according to Scott Millwood, CEO of Customer Effective, a Microsoft partner.<br /><br />"There's not as much demand for hosted ERP as there is on the CRM side," he said.<br /><br />Microsoft execs have said in the past that public numbers of hosted ERP vendors like NetSuite indicate a lot of "churn" as customers come on board, but exit just as quickly.<br /><br />Microsoft-hosted ERP has been rumoured for more than a year now, so Ballmer's comments did not come as a total surprise to Microsoft partners at Convergence.<br /><br />"Microsoft probably, deep in their think tank, does have a Software as a Service strategy that goes beyond their current hosting strategy," said Jon Buchan, a vice president at Blue Fox, another partner.<br /><br />Meanwhile, Microsoft today announced Dynamic AX 2009, the latest version of its ERP software that partners can host or deploy on premise. The new release will allow for integration among multiple customer locations. Microsoft partners said that will be a big selling point to help Microsoft compete against the ERP market leaders.<br /><br />"It's not there, but it's getting there," said Eric Wagner, a partner with Agility Business Solutions, yet another Microsoft partner. "We'll be able to enhance it, and we'll be able to offer it to multiple customer sets."<br /><br />Buchan agreed.<br /><br />"They really made multi-company very strong, and that was probably the one area where we didn't match up well with SAP," he said.<br /><br />Ballmer this morning also stressed Microsoft's commitment to enterprise applications. He said more people ask him about Microsoft's devotion to that market than any other topic.<br /><br />"We have a long-term view for every one of these products," he said.<br /><br />Wagner said Microsoft needs to sell more into the ERP space, and he's confident the company will do so -- eventually.<br /><br />"They've got the commitment, but they don't have the experience or the people yet," he said. "It doesn't happen overnight."</span></div><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:Arial;"></span> </div><div align="justify"><span style="font-family:Arial;">Source : <a href="http://www.searchcio.com.au/">www.searchcio.com.au</a></span></div>Akshayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12916890014175976914noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925693286217891947.post-73663050539565898542008-03-10T05:51:00.000-07:002008-03-10T05:54:36.985-07:00Sap ERP Software<div align="justify"><span style="font-family:arial;"><strong>The SAP ERP</strong> application is the software foundation enterprises trust to achieve business excellence and innovation.

Tasks that need to interface with one another may involve:<br /><br />- Design engineering (how to best make the product)<br />- Order tracking from acceptance through fulfillment<br />- The revenue cycle from invoice through cash receipt<br />- Managing interdependencies of complex Bill of Materials<br />- Tracking the 3-way match between Purchase orders (what was ordered), Inventory receipts (what arrived), and Costing (what the vendor invoiced)<br />- The Accounting for all of these tasks, tracking the Revenue, Cost and Profit on a granular level.<br /><br />Change how a product is made, in the engineering details, and that is how it will now be made. Effective dates can be used to control when the switch over will occur from an old version to the next one, both the date that some ingredients go into effect, and date that some are discontinued. Part of the change can include labeling to identify version numbers.<br /><br />Some security features are included within an ERP system to protect against both outsider crime, such as industrial espionage, and insider crime, such as embezzlement. A data tampering scenario might involve a disgruntled employee intentionally modifying prices to below the breakeven point in order to attempt to take down the company, or other sabotage. ERP systems typically provide functionality for implementing internal controls to prevent actions of this kind. ERP vendors are also moving toward better integration with other kinds of information security tools.<br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#000099;">Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Software Disadvantages :</span><br /></strong><br />Many problems organizations have with ERP systems are due to inadequate investment in ongoing training for involved personnel, including those implementing and testing changes, as well as a lack of corporate policy protecting the integrity of the data in the ERP systems and how it is used. Limitations of ERP include:<br /><br />- Success depends on the skill and experience of the workforce, including training about how to make the system work correctly.<br />- Small enterprises are often undercapitalized & are also not updated about the latest offerings in the market<br />- Personnel turnover; companies can employ new managers lacking education in the company's ERP system, proposing changes in business practices that are out of synchronization with the best utilization of the company's selected ERP.<br />- Customization of the ERP software is limited. Some customization may involve changing of the ERP software structure which is usually not allowed.<br />- Re-engineering of business processes to fit the "industry standard" prescribed by the ERP system may lead to a loss of competitive advantage.<br />- ERP systems can be very expensive to install often ranging from 30,000 US Dollars to 500,000,000 US Dollars for multinational companies.<br />- ERP vendors can charge sums of money for annual license renewal that is unrelated to the size of the company using the ERP or its profitability.<br />- Technical support personnel often give replies to callers that are inappropriate for the caller's corporate structure. Computer security concerns arise, for example when telling a non-programmer how to change a database on the fly, at a company that requires an audit trail of changes so as to meet some regulatory standards.<br />- ERPs are often seen as too rigid and too difficult to adapt to the specific workflow and business process of some companies—this is cited as one of the main causes of their failure.<br />- Systems can be difficult to use.<br />- Systems are too restrictive and do not allow much flexibility in implementation and usage.<br />- The system can suffer from the "weakest link" problem—an inefficiency in one department or at one of the partners may affect other participants.<br />- Many of the integrated links need high accuracy in other applications to work effectively. A company can achieve minimum standards, then over time "dirty data" will reduce the reliability of some applications.<br />- Once a system is established, switching costs are very high for any one of the partners (reducing flexibility and strategic control at the corporate level).<br />- The blurring of company boundaries can cause problems in accountability, lines of responsibility, and employee morale.<br />- Resistance in sharing sensitive internal information between departments can reduce the effectiveness of the software.<br />- Some large organizations may have multiple departments with separate, independent resources, missions, chains-of-command, etc, and consolidation into a single enterprise may yield limited benefits.<br />- There are frequent compatibility problems with the various legacy systems of the partners.<br />- The system may be over-engineered relative to the actual needs of the customer.<br /><br />Source : <strong>Wikipedia</strong></span></div>Akshayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12916890014175976914noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925693286217891947.post-78442462091369302342008-03-04T22:07:00.000-08:002008-03-04T22:35:13.521-08:00ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) Software Solution<div align="justify"><span style="font-family:arial;"><strong>Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)</strong> systems attempt to integrate all data and processes of an organization into a unified system. A typical ERP system will use multiple components of computer software and hardware to achieve the integration. A key ingredient of most ERP systems is the use of a unified database to store data for the various system modules.<br /><br />The initials ERP originated as an extension of MRP (material requirements planning then manufacturing resource planning). ERP systems now attempt to cover all basic functions of an enterprise, regardless of the organization's business or charter. Non-manufacturing businesses, non-profit organizations and governments now all utilize ERP systems.<br /></div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174139211706771394" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 347px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="320" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-zk77B_MU_RxZ7qmPh1oNmOkAwaJmrmzv0jRfLv-6paXCGcYgOX8doeTLXSeBACVg02zQY0wpGtLJQTOksIyCjS5mUZ2pP1VWa_0TDexGTQUXbNzgt2Kua5TSSvxsArVC02ACqZVK9Vff/s320/ERP+Software+Solution.jpg" width="285" border="0" /> <p align="justify">MRP vs. ERP — Manufacturing management systems have evolved in stages over the past 30 years from a simple means of calculating materials requirements to the automation of an entire enterprise. Around 1980, over-frequent changes in sales forecasts, entailing continual readjustments in production, as well as the unsuitability of the parameters fixed by the system, led MRP (Material Requirement Planning) to evolve into a new concept : Manufacturing Resource Planning (or MRP2) and finally the generic concept Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP).</p><p align="justify"></span><span style="font-family:arial;"><br />To be considered an ERP system, a software package must provide the function of at least two systems. For example, a software package that provides both payroll and accounting functions could technically be considered an ERP software package.<br /><br />However, the term is typically reserved for larger, more broadly based applications. The introduction of an ERP system to replace two or more independent applications eliminates the need for external interfaces previously required between systems, and provides additional benefits that range from standardization and lower maintenance (one system instead of two or more) to easier and/or greater reporting capabilities (as all data is typically kept in one database).<br /><br />Examples of modules in an ERP which formerly would have been stand-alone applications include: Manufacturing, Supply Chain, Financials, Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Human Resources, Warehouse Management and Decision Support System.<br /><br />Some organizations — typically those with sufficient in-house IT skills to integrate multiple software products — choose to implement only portions of an ERP system and develop an external interface to other ERP or stand-alone systems for their other application needs. For example, one may choose to use human resource management system from one vendor, and the financial systems from another, and perform the integration between the systems themselves.<br /><br />This is very common in the retail sector[citation needed], where even a mid-sized retailer will have a discrete Point-of-Sale (POS) product and financials application, then a series of specialized applications to handle business requirements such as warehouse management, staff rostering, merchandising and logistics.<br /><br />Ideally, ERP delivers a single database that contains all data for the software modules, which would include:<br /><br /><strong>Manufacturing</strong><br />Engineering, Bills of Material, Scheduling, Capacity, Workflow Management, Quality Control, Cost Management, Manufacturing Process, Manufacturing Projects, Manufacturing Flow<br /><br /><strong>Supply Chain Management</strong><br />Inventory, Order Entry, Purchasing, Product Configurator, Supply Chain Planning, Supplier Scheduling, Inspection of goods, Claim Processing, Commission Calculation<br /><br /><strong>Financials</strong><br />General Ledger, Cash Management, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Fixed Assets<br /><br /><strong>Projects</strong><br />Costing, Billing, Time and Expense, Activity Management<br /><br /><strong>Human Resources</strong><br />Human Resources, Payroll, Training, Time & Attendance, Rostering, Benefits<br /><br /><strong>Customer Relationship Management</strong><br />Sales and Marketing, Commissions, Service, Customer Contact and Call Center support<br /><br /><strong>Data Warehouse</strong><br />and various Self-Service interfaces for Customers, Suppliers, and Employees<br /><br />Enterprise Resource Planning is a term originally derived from manufacturing resource planning (MRP II) that followed material requirements planning (MRP). MRP evolved into ERP when "routings" became a major part of the software architecture and a company's capacity planning activity also became a part of the standard software activity.[citation needed] ERP systems typically handle the manufacturing, logistics, distribution, inventory, shipping, invoicing, and accounting for a company. Enterprise Resource Planning or ERP software can aid in the control of many business activities, like sales, marketing, delivery, billing, production, inventory management, quality management, and human resource management.<br /><br />ERP systems saw a large boost in sales in the 1990s as companies faced the Y2K problem in their legacy systems. Many companies took this opportunity to replace their legacy information systems with ERP systems. This rapid growth in sales was followed by a slump in 1999, at which time most companies had already implemented their Y2K solution.<br /><br />ERPs are often incorrectly called back office systems indicating that customers and the general public are not directly involved. This is contrasted with front office systems like customer relationship management (CRM) systems that deal directly with the customers, or the eBusiness systems such as eCommerce, eGovernment, eTelecom, and eFinance, or supplier relationship management (SRM) systems.<br /><br />ERPs are cross-functional and enterprise wide. All functional departments that are involved in operations or production are integrated in one system. In addition to manufacturing, warehousing, logistics, and information technology, this would include accounting, human resources, marketing, and strategic management.<br /><br />ERP II means open ERP architecture of components. The older, monolithic ERP systems became component oriented.<br /><br />EAS — Enterprise Application Suite is a new name for formerly developed ERP systems which include (almost) all segments of business, using ordinary Internet browsers as thin clients.<br /><br /><strong>Before</strong><br /><br />Prior to the concept of ERP systems, departments within an organization (for example, the human resources (HR)) department, the payroll department, and the financial department) would have their own computer systems. The HR computer system (often called HRMS or HRIS) would typically contain information on the department, reporting structure, and personal details of employees. The payroll department would typically calculate and store paycheck information. The financial department would typically store financial transactions for the organization. Each system would have to rely on a set of common data to communicate with each other. For the HRIS to send salary information to the payroll system, an employee number would need to be assigned and remain static between the two systems to accurately identify an employee. The financial system was not interested in the employee-level data, but only in the payouts made by the payroll systems, such as the tax payments to various authorities, payments for employee benefits to providers, and so on. This provided complications. For instance, a person could not be paid in the payroll system without an employee number.<br /><br /><strong>After</strong><br /><br />ERP software, among other things, combined the data of formerly separate applications. This made the worry of keeping numbers in synchronization across multiple systems disappear. It standardized and reduced the number of software specialties required within larger organizations.<br /><br /><strong>Implementation</strong><br /><br />Because of their wide scope of application within a business, ERP software systems are typically complex and usually impose significant changes on staff work practices.[citation needed] Implementing ERP software is typically not an "in-house" skill, so even smaller projects are more cost effective if specialist ERP implementation consultants are employed.[citation needed] The length of time to implement an ERP system depends on the size of the business, the scope of the change and willingness of the customer to take ownership for the project.[citation needed] A small project (e.g., a company of less than 100 staff) may be planned and delivered within 3-9 months; however, a large, multi-site or multi-country implementation may take years.<br /><br />To implement ERP systems, companies often seek the help of an ERP vendor or of third-party consulting companies. These firms typically provide three areas of professional services: consulting, customization and support.<br /><br />Source : <strong>Wikipedia</strong></span></p>Akshayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12916890014175976914noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4925693286217891947.post-29548775115779486852008-03-02T22:50:00.000-08:002008-03-02T22:53:45.968-08:00Visibility ERP and Optimum Solutions Work Together to Improve HR and Payroll Processes for Applied Aerospace Structures Corporation<div align="justify"><span style="font-family:arial;"><strong>Applied Aerospace Structures Corporation of California, a Visibility ERP client recently deployed Optimum Solutions Payroll System</strong><br /><br />Applied Aerospace Structures Corporation of California, a Visibility ERP client recently deployed Optimum Solutions Payroll System.

The DEACOM System will replace Cincinnati Vulcan's non-integrated accounting and laboratory management software systems in order to better manage a multi-company structure.<br /><br />With an ISO 9001:2000 quality system certification, Cincinnati Vulcan utilizes a research and quality control laboratory to manufacture, package, and distribute a variety of quality lubricating oils, metalworking fluids, and water-based cleaners under the Vulcan brand and other brand names. Its previous software set-up, however, was not being supported and required the company to operate two databases with customized programming and add-ons. The systems necessitated the use of a number of custom reports and external Excel® documents for sales commissions and tote tracking.<br /><br />e DEACOM ERP System, once implemented in the summer of 2008, will integrate the sales order entry, purchasing, inventory control, formulation and lab management, regulatory reporting, production, web portal, labor tracking, and accounting processes of Cincinnati Vulcan in a single system. With one database, Cincinnati Vulcan will have the ability to plan material requirements for its predominantly make-to-order environment and generate configurable reports, Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), and invoices directly from the DEACOM System. The company will also be able to automate its bar coding and labeling process for true lot control at all of its warehouse locations.<br /><br />"DEACOM, in comparison to our former software systems, makes our business operations seem too easy," says Rhett Francisco of Cincinnati Vulcan. "Having one system to integrate our entire business will save our order processing alone about one-third of our labor costs, which is vital to our commitment to continuous product and process quality improvement."<br /><br /><strong>About Deacom, Inc</strong><br /><br />Headquartered in Wayne, PA, Deacom, Inc. is the producer of DEACOM, a complete accounting and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system for building component, process, and mixed-mode manufacturers with difficult-to-handle requirements. The DEACOM System seamlessly links all departments within a manufacturing company, providing a comprehensive view of the entire operation.
