Baan/LN Tip of the Week: ERP Setup - Pros & Cons

You may have started your setup of your ERP system one way, and have discovered over time that maybe it no longer fits how you need to do business. Here are some pros/cons to consider for a Single Finance / Multi-Logistic setup.

 

Pros/Cons of Single Finance / Multi-Logistic Company Set-Up

Logistics data not visible across companies – pro if you do not want users to see other company’s data.

 

Cons

Decentralized operations – purchasing, sales, manufacturing, planning, warehousing, etc.

Tips:  LX | BPCS | M3

Happy New Year! January is always a great time to reflect on the prior year – what went well, and what didn’t. It is also the obvious time to plan for the coming year – what do I want to accomplish and how can I best achieve my goals?

As the saying goes, “you can’t improve what you can’t measure”, so if you haven’t already, it is time to start putting processes, procedures and programs in place within your company to measure how well each department is doing against their objectives. Start to analyze your numbers and publish them internally. Where are you at currently? Where do you want to be? Seeing both sets of numbers pushes employees to hit those targets. Do this now, and you’ll be seeing positive results before you know it!
