ERP發(fā)展方向先ERP還是電子商務(wù)（ERP or e-commerce in ERP development direction）

1、ERP發(fā)展方向先ERP還是電子商務(wù)（ERP or e-commerce in ERP development direction）ERP and B2B, which is the best way to go?The website of spring and land, haiers website, traditional businesses are rallying around the Internet economy. But in the vast majority of enterprise internal informationization construction h

2、as not been fully assured, is their this kind of action is to catch the new trend, or is not willing to lose the huge business opportunity that the online sale brings? In other words, the traditional enterprises in China face the global economic integration and the wave of e-commerce. What steps sho

3、uld the enterprises informatization construction take?For starters, the world is really unfair. They have just adapted to the game rules of market economy, and they have come to a knowledge economy and network economy. The informationization construction of oneself enterprise inside, even the financ

4、ial computerization is still wasteland, again the big challenge that wants to face the electronic commerce! Its hard for them.And the contradiction was in sight.What to do first?At present, traditional enterprises have invested heavily in the construction of enterprise management information system.

5、 But in B2B (note: this article refers to B2B, not because I have a precise definition, but rather refers to using the Internet for online sales, online procurement front-end e-commerce software system) become a hot spot, ERP (note: the ERP referred to in this article, also does not have a clear def

6、inition, it refers to the ERP software to represent the background of enterprise internal management information system (software) attractive today, how enterprise becoming an information based society, what steps should be taken to make it not so simple.For now, at least three of the companies that

7、 have yet to make it feel uncertain:1. ERP must be. Although ERP is currently in the developed countries as a result of the cold encounter, this is because many enterprises in developed countries such as the United States already implemented ERP system. What they most want to do now is how to take a

8、dvantage of the opportunities brought by the Internet, and promote further development on the basis of their existing management information system. And domestic companies are different, some of them dont even have any computer information systems. Therefore, the enterprise information work carried

9、out by foreign enterprises must be complemented by domestic enterprises. Without it, it would be impossible to be someone elses long-term adversary.2. B2B is the trend. Online sales and online purchasing can save a great deal of transaction cost, eliminate the distance between space and time, and be

10、 an excellent way for enterprises to conduct trade activities, and also the best means to achieve global economic integration. With the further maturity of the Internet, B2B is bound to become the main mode of business transaction. Developed countries have implemented ERP system enterprises to stare

11、 at its development situation, the enterprises that have not made information construction in China also have to stare at it. We have already taken a step slower on ERP than others, and we cant be vague on the B2B battlefield.B2B and ERP have a lot of relationships. B2B comes from abroad, but it is

12、not born out of nowhere, but it is put forward on the existing basis and demand of foreign enterprises. Therefore, B2B in their view, is the ERP and other enterprise management information system full use of the following. Because of this, B2B is closely related to ERP from the beginning: an order i

13、s received online,How does the production system respond? Online sales of a product, how the financial system of the enterprise accounts? Every action in B2B is associated with the ERP. Thus, it is fair to say how well the ERP system is built, ultimately affecting the success of B2B.We used to say,

14、the yesterday of the advanced enterprise is our today, their today is our tomorrow. But when the global economy is integrated, the Internet economy is not working. It has become the present day of the advanced enterprise, which is our today. Therefore, traditional enterprises in China not only need

15、to carry out ERP construction, but also realize the B2B model. Eyebrows mustache must be all to grasp, but the key of the problem is the enterprises manpower and material ability is limited, which good should first grasp? Our domestic traditional enterprises are first to make a pen online, to achiev

16、e B2B, or to work hard to consolidate the ERP?Its not going to last long, right?In the face of the hot B2B, the quick-tempered boss will soon set up a team to attack the Internet and make all the things online, he said. But there are people who disagree. Chen Qishen industry well-known experts, argu

17、es Mr Foreign e-commerce have a rapid development, is the complete industrialization, entered the informationization, the application of computer has been fairly popularization and application has reached a quite high level of credit card, the credit verification, settlement and payment, distributio

18、n and logistics system, security measures and the law have a reliable guarantee. We still have a lot of work to do, and to improve, it can be counterproductive for businesses to rush to B2B. For a simple example, if a company builds a web page, there are a number of customers who will make inquiries

19、 immediately, requesting delivery in a very short period of time, and offering many additional requirements for product functionality. In this case, B2B companies cannot respond quickly and reliably without an ERP system. Practice of MRP /ERP as enterprise internal work, without this internal work,

20、its hard to kill in the market. E-commerce and ERP are a bit like the front and rear relationships. E-commerce applications are like your home phone, but your friends and family dont have it and still cant communicate. Chen Qishen argues that, in general, enterprise informatization must first solve

21、the enterprise within the scope of the communication of information, connect each branch, branch factories, offices, sales outlets, regional warehouse Intranet (Intranet) and office automation system (OA), enterprise Web and E-mail systems is established. Establish an enterprise Extranet or electron

22、ic data exchange system (EDI) with a long-term partner. For companies with close ties to international trade (exports, overseas purchases) and Banks or insurance businesses, e-commerce may be more urgent. Domestic e-commerce is booming, and most people believe that online marketing is the starting p

23、oint for e-commerce. Therefore, Chen believes that domestic enterprises should prepare early in B2B and pay attention to the integration of information with ERP system.He pointed out that ERP is the basis for e-commerce.Mr. Cheng gang, general manager of Beijing kaisi software technology co., LTD.,

24、a well-known domestic e-commerce solutions provider, also believes thatIf in a hurry to online sales, and background of ERP system is not perfect, often leads to unexpected happens, and these things tend to bring great harm to enterprises image and credibility. Now many domestic trading site, for ex

25、ample, often appear this kind of circumstance, they received a lot of orders on the Internet, but cant automatically to deal with orders, finally caused some orders missing, some goods didnt send to customers, and even some of the goods on the Internet shows that there are a few, but in the warehous

26、e to check but found no. If the companys front-end B2B system is out of sync with the back-end ERP system, things that make consumers unhappy often happen. Therefore, cheng just believes that the ERP system in the background must be built in order to truly make a difference in B2B. He also noted tha

27、t some well-known websites in the country already regret not having considered it. Of course, theyre doing it right now, but its not easy for companies to get on the ERP system.First ERP will miss business opportunities?Indeed, if the enterprise does not have the perfect background ERP system, it wi

28、ll make the enterprise feel the lack of strength. But as you know, it is not a matter of a month or two that companies can really implement an ERP system. After spending a year or two, when the ERP system is really good, the outside world may already be a different place. Perhaps the market has also

29、 been robbed by the business-to-business solders.In fact, there are plenty of people who can hold a business-to-business idea first. Wave wave group vice President, general software company general manager Mr Tiger thought, based on the current situation of domestic enterprises and the whole interna

30、tional market situation, the enterprise through online sales to expand their market is a very good choice. He argues that companies can start with a B2B system, because many of the domestic companies can afford to take more orders.Mr. Hublin, managing director of Oracle in China, also believes that

31、for domestic enterprises that have not yet done well in information construction, they should first go to the B2B system, or they will lose a lot of business opportunities. In fact, Amazon, the worlds largest online bookstore, had no backend management system at the beginning. Although it has to be

32、made up now, it won the first place. This is the most important thing in the Internet world, in the storm of e-commerce.According to ccid-mic, the total value of shopping in China was 55 million yuan in 1999 and is forecast to reach 350 million yuan this year. AMR, the industrys leading consultancy,

33、 also predicted that by 2004, the worlds entire B2B market would be worth $5.7bn. Such sales are not likely to be considered without our careful consideration. AMR also conducted a survey of 600 companies that traded online and found that only 10 had links to their ERP systems. AMR warns that the li

34、nk between B2B and ERP should be emphasized. But this also illustrates the problem, which is that business-to-business enterprises are not without them, but mostly.Can the two pipes be together?Since who is the first to be so tricky,Is it able to do both ERP and B2B? According to Dr. Zhang houqi, ge

35、neral manager of hampstead, a well-known consulting firm in China, ERP is the basis, and B2B is the hot and trending. But companies can do both in practice. A group of people responsible for ERP projects, a group of people in charge of B2B projects, will not bring about any conflicts between the imp

36、lementers and the enterprises. Of course, the timing of the two can be quite different.If you think about it, it would be advantageous to implement ERP and B2B systems together. Because of this, the ERP and B2B connection can be done very well. The information system of the enterprise can also be gr

37、asped and coordinated from the whole, without the hidden danger to the integration of the future system. Moreover, ERP and B2B are all enterprises must have, can do first, do not waste investment.However, the two sides require companies to have strong capital, otherwise they can not afford the cost

38、of ERP and B2B system implementation. At the same time, this also requires that the management level and technology level of the enterprise itself are high, otherwise the two will mix together, will lose many peoples head. Therefore, it may be appropriate for the large enterprises to be under the du

39、al control, and the small and medium-sized enterprises may not be able to afford it.ITE swoop inIt was because of the small and medium-sized enterprises distress, that result in a claim to supply chain revolution of the creation of a new industry -, ITE (IndependentTrad ingExchanges, independent bus

40、iness exchange).Theres a foreign company, it is more than 70% of the transaction through EDI (ElectronicDataIn terchange, electronic data interchange), the rest of the form through telephone or fax, etc. Because the products are selling well, the company wants to expand its sales. But the companys c

41、urrent sales model is hard to come by. Because of the limited number of companies that can use EDI in the form of transactions, the phones capacity is limited. What to do? ITE helped it. The company gave the product to a ITE company to sell online. This has both increased sales and not bothered to d

42、o B2B systems on your own.In fact, in a nutshell, ITE is just one of many. But its business is to do e-commerce, which is to provide a platform for various manufacturers to sell online and purchase online. Unlike the manufacturers own e-commerce, ITE has a large number of products that are sold here

43、. The user can compare the competitive goods here, and buy the things he is satisfied with. To be fair, ITE is the market on the Internet. At present, there are three types of ITE: horizontal type, vertical type and center type. Horizontal ITE mainly sells some common consumer goods, such as office

44、supplies, cultural products, etc. Its main consumer is a large number of daily consumer goods. The vertical type of ITE is mainly for the sale of more specialized products, such as specialized sales of related products. Its main consumer is the people involved with the ITE. Center type is relatively

45、 complicated, it refers to those who can not only do B2B, and its B2B system implementation and its product suppliers connected to the computer information system, EDI can achieve similar to the function of online exchanges.In this way, many small and medium-sized enterprises can also enjoy EDI sale

46、s treatment.Discussion on the application of e-commerce and ERP integration in manufacturing enterprisesWhen information technology is used as a production factor by enterprises, a problem arises: is the enterprise effective in information technology? The answer is: most businesses are not informati

47、ve. In other words, enterprises do not make full use of their existing information technology equipment to make the production as high as possible. Or at the same level of production, information technology costs the least. This tells us that companies need not only to make new combinations of facto

48、rs of production, but also to make the most efficient use of factors of production. Today, many manufacturing enterprises in our country are flourishing e-commerce and enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, however, how can they be effective for enterprise technology?Manufacturing enterprise e-c

49、ommerce and ERP1. E-commerceFor different social organizations, the understanding of e-commerce is different. For manufacturing enterprises, e-commerce should be a new trading mode for enterprises to expand their market and consumer market, purchase inputs and sales products or services through the

50、Internet. It is not only the pursuit of web site hits, but also the pursuit of website transaction rate, enterprise overall competitiveness and economic efficiency, at the same time, it also brings the increase of social wealth, and maximize the social welfare. It has the following characteristics:

51、(1) digitalization or symbolization of goods and currencies; (2) the electronic, paperless and purchasing behaviors of the transaction process; (3) the market is networked, integrated and unmarginalized; (4) the possibility of transcending time and space, long-distance trading and foreign trade.It i

52、s essential to manufacture or produce enterprises to use e-commerce. Because it can (1) reduce circulation and reduce transaction costs; (2) expedite capital turnover and inventory turnover; (3) improve marketing capacity and expand domestic and foreign markets; (4) facilitate customer information r

53、ecord, improve customer service system and enhance customer relationship management; (5) promote the transition from production oriented management to market oriented management.2. Enterprise resource planningEnterprise Resource Planning (Enterprise Resource Planning, ERP) is a kind of computer impl

54、ementation of scientific management thought, originated in the early 1960 s, the era of material requirement Planning (MRP) and manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP) era. In the 90 s, the enterprise all resource management thoughts, MRP into the era of ERP. ERP product development and design consist

55、, job control, production planning, procurement, marketing, sales, inventory (inputs, semi-finished products and finished products), the management of the integrated optimization of the financial and personnel, etc, and including the corresponding module component. ERP is not mechanically adapted to

56、 the enterprise existing processes, but the unreasonable part of enterprise process improvement and optimization Suggestions, and could lead to a redesign of the organization and business process restructuring.The effect of ERP on the enterprise is obvious: (1) to shorten the procurement of the inpu

57、ts and the supply of finished products, and to maintain the lowest possible inventory; (2) reduce downtime, time cost and opportunity cost; (3) reduce the supply of goods to wholesalers or customers and improve customer satisfaction; (4) to improve product quality and reduce labor costs;(5) manage r

58、esource sharing, save management personnel and reduce management expenses.Problems existing in e-commerce and ERP construction1) e-commerce and ERP are divided, without unified planning and unified design;2) the procurement data, sales data and financial data of the two systems are not merged to mak

59、e the data inconsistent and complete;3) insufficient sharing of software resources, hardware resources and data resources, resulting in excessive construction costs and waste of storage space;4) take the partial understanding of e-commerce into electronic stores or just build a website;5) ERP directly adopts the commodity software in the market
