ERP software incorporates all of our major business processes, which assist ensure consistent data across all our functional departments. ERP applications classically consist of modules like Marketing and Sales, Field Service, Production, Inventory Control, Procurement, Distribution, Human Resources, Finance, and Accounting.

Because of very broad scope of application within a business, ERP software systems are generally very complex. They usually impose significant changes on staff work practices. Implementing ERP software is just not an "in-house" skill. The time required to implement an ERP system simply depends on the size of the business, the scope of the change and willingness of the customer to take ownership for the project. A small project might be planned and then delivered within three or four months months; while, a large and complex, multi-site or multi-country implementation may take years. The most vital part of any ERP implementation is that the company who has purchased the ERP product can take ownership of the project. To implement ERP systems, companies mostly get the help of an ERP vendor or of third-party consulting companies.
