Understand why Enterprise Resource Planning, or simply ERP, is an efficient business management system for your business!

ERP stands for Enterprise Resource Planning.

In practice, ERP works as a software that automates manual operations and assists in a company's internal processes in an integrated way and on a single platform, ensuring that information is safe and stored in its database.

With ERP systems, users are able to analyze data in real time and measure information relevant to day-to-day business. In this way, ERP improves the company's productivity and decision-making, as well as reducing rework and even the difficulty of finding reliable data.

Where to apply ERP in your company?

The same business management system can work in different ways for each type of company, whether small, medium or large. However, one thing is for sure: it can be a great benefit to your growth.

• The ERP meets the needs through different modules, such as:

  • Financial control
  • Purchases
  • Issuance of electronic invoices for products and services
  • Inventory
  • Commercial management
  • People management
  • Online POS
  • Production

From them, companies succeed in automating their activities, optimizing processes, monitoring results and even reducing costs. If necessary, it is possible to use integration APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) that allow you to integrate the ERP with external applications. Many ERP's also allow customization within the ERP environment, so that new applications are built, or even that existing applications are modified according to the needs of each company

Another relevant feature of this system is the exclusive customization for your company. Reputable ERP's are generally flexible enough to contemplate the best practices of each different type of industry and process, thus allowing the ERP to be configured in a way that adheres to the processes of each company

What are the advantages of using an ERP?

Now that you know what an ERP system is, it is important to understand what the benefits of using management software are. We have prepared a list of the main ones. Keep reading to find out what they are.

• Increased agility with process automation

  The reduction of time in bureaucratic activities of the business routine because of the automation of tasks is one of the advantages of using an ERP. A basic example is billing.

  In the integrated management system, a company that has its processes well adjusted and its ERP well configured, the invoice billing process can be agile and relatively simple, and depending on the ERP, it can even facilitate the sending of the invoice to the customer, in that the customer receives the invoice by e-mail, which makes life easier for customers and their team.

  The operations carried out through the ERP become more efficient, simplifying and streamlining the demands with quality. Positive point to identify new opportunities and put them into practice!

• Integrated management and data security

  With all the information concentrated on a single platform with full integration between the sectors and departments of your company, you can quickly generate business reports and easily share them, improving performance.

  In addition, have complete security of the data and operations performed. Key management information is stored in large databases protected by robust security layers, and the most current ERP's adhere to the regulations of the General Law for the Protection of Personal Data (LGPD).

• Risk reduction and strategic decision making

  By getting data from any area of the business more quickly, you maximize business visibility and control. This ensures greater power to analyze risks and failures in processes and in real time!

  You can plan the necessary adjustments with precision and reliable information. With this, your company can get ahead of the market by making strategic decisions at the right time.

• Error prevention

  With an ERP system, the errors and failures in information management tend to be reduced, since the dependence on manual human interventions is reduced, and even when manual interventions occur, it is possible in many cases to validate the information entered against business rules previously configured in the ERP. As it is possible to have far-reaching insights, this single source of automatic data across modules and sectors even avoids duplicate entries.
