Computers have become so complex and commonplace in organisations,
it is much easier to integrate all of the data and processing software
modules and hardware into one large unit that is easier to access and
control. This is called Enterprise Resource Planning, or ERP. Normally ERP
systems use the same database throughout an entire company to store
various types of data for different computerised functions. When first
developed, ERP systems were used only for large manufacturing
companies. Today, they benefit all sizes of companies, even those that are
quite small.
