ERP is a term originally derived from MRP II (Manufacturing Resource Planning) that followed material requirements planning (MRP).

MRP is typically handle the manufacturing process for company and ERP systems handle the logistics, sales and distribution, inventory, shipping, finance, and accounting along with manufacturing.

Earlier this integrated system was useful for large organizations only to handle their wide resources, but nowadays use of ERP has changed and is extremely comprehensive, today it can refer to any type of company, small/medium/large.

Enterprise Resource Planning is an industry term for the broad set of activities that helps to integrate all the functions of the organization such as manufacturing, supply chain management, financials, projects, human resources and customer relationship management.

ERP software applications can be used to manage product planning, purchase, inventory, interacting with suppliers, customer relationship management service, and order tracking. Enterprise Resource Planning software provides a bird’s eye view to the management to control the business activities, including sales, marketing, dispatch, billing, production management, inventory management, quality management and personal management.

Software system can be considered as ERP if providing an organization with functionality for two or more systems.

Implementing a solution at the enterprise level allows organizations to get rid of standalone computer systems in finance, HR, manufacturing and the warehouse and replaces them with software solution with individual sub modules for each department.

The key difference is that now finance can look into the warehouse module and check if the pending orders from a day before have been processed or not.
