Any business looking to manage their inventory understands the advantages of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software. Today's ERP software offers much more value to the user than ever before. Typically, inventory management modules within ERP programs perform the necessary functions you would come to expect from such a system. Most benefits function under the umbrella of warehousing features.ERP software, for example, offers features such as modification, balancing, transfer, and reverse operations. Management of multiple storage centers and specialized inventory management features (such as serial numbers, batch tracking, etc.) also come as standard functionality within ERP software. Now, modern ERP software has transcended traditional inventory management into different areas of interest. Let's discuss further what benefits this software has to offer.
In congruence with any linear product development, ERP continues to grow more powerful and useful as time wears on. From the aforementioned standard operational features, we find the functionality of ERP has progressed greatly over the recent years. We’ve noticed improved scalability (adaption to change), automated reporting, and improved data quality with these updated versions. This reduces inefficiency and sets the stage for better business decisions.
Cloud-based ERP systems take the ethos of convenience to the next level. Now, remotely manage resources for multiple facilities from one device at a remote location. The nuanced omnipresence at your facilities significantly cuts costs to your operations. Adverse practices no longer sneak through undetected. Additional bonuses include offering better business analytics from higher quality data, improved access to this data from advanced user management, and overall reduced complexity in deciphering workflows.
Recent ERP software now enables integration of additional modules to compliment standard inventory and resource management. Now, streamline your ERP software into sales, marketing, and HR. These sales modules implement the functions of order placement, scheduling and invoicing. Results include increased customer satisfaction from improved accuracy in product completion and delivery times.
Marketing also comes into the mix thanks to data analysis. Marketing modules depict buying trends and customer habits, therefore lending its support to lead generation, mailing campaigns and the other similar strategies to increase your customer base.
For larger facilities, ERP’s Human Resources Module is a saving grace for the OCD user. It maintains a complete employee database including contact information, salary details, attendance and much more. Other options categorize expertise of all employees. Here, troubleshooting specific niche issues become a breeze.
Modern ERP software reduces the stress involved in facility management. It’s remote capability, multiple user interfaces, and ease of access gives you up-to-date, scalable information to increase your facility’s efficiency and money in your pocket. Who knows, these capabilities could even lead to the birth of the SUPERPLANT!
