Frequently asked questions

Enterprise resource planning (ERP) system is a type of software system that allows organizations to manage and monitor core business processes from across departments in one place. This may include areas such as financial management and accounting, order management, inventory management, warehouse management, production orchestration and execution, supply chain management, procurement and other core processes. Traditionally ERPs have been leveraged primarily by larger organizations, but evolution of cloud computing and a growing range of solutions available in the market continue to increase adoption among the small and mid-sized businesses as well.

ERP integration refers to the process of exchanging data between an ERP solution and other systems within an enterprise, or with its trading partners. ERP integration solutions improve process efficiency and reduce the risk of business disruption through automated data processing and synchronization. Examples of ERP integration include: synchronizing data between the ERP and another system such as a CRM, orchestrating multi-step processes where user action in the ERP automatically triggers a workflow step in another application, and composite application functionality where integrations with other systems automatically fetch required information from other systems to complete a task that a user wants to perform. Depending on the connected systems and the business context these use cases can span across application-to-application integration (A2A) and business-to-business (B2B) use cases.

ERP integration helps automate business processes and maintain data consistency across business applications. This reduces the need for manual efforts around data processing, which speeds up process cycle times, improves process quality and increases user productivity. Ultimately these benefits lower operating costs, increase profit and deliver better customer experiences.
