ERP System Functions are the core processes and applications that a business needs to operate and manage efficiently. This could include customer relationship management (CRM), financials, inventory control and supply chain, human resource planning, manufacturing operations, analytics and reporting, among other things. The goal of an ERP system is to provide a single platform to handle all of these complex tasks in an integrated way, so that the business can run more smoothly, with better visibility into performance. It’s like having an extra set of hands on hand wherever and whenever you need them – without ever needing to hire any staff!
