    Study Notes

    ERP System Implementation Phases

    • ERP Systems are characterized by modularization, featuring fully integrated modules, which require activation, development of interfaces, and creation of additional modules.
    • Customization of ERP systems is a complex and expensive alternative, resulting in untested and difficult-to-maintain solutions.
    • Integrity is a key feature of ERP systems, with all data being stored in a single database, defining functions, entities, and transactions.
    • Data migration to an ERP system is a challenging process, often requiring specialized software, data normalization, and considerable time and cost.
    • The Conference Room Pilot (CRP) activity allows users to understand the standard basis and prototype setup of the ERP system.
    • The Testing phase involves thorough testing of the ERP system, confirmation of system behavior, configuration, and identification of defects.
    • Testing also involves the identification and fixing of defects, with new defects being revealed even after the go-live phase.
    • Lack of setup, interfaces, customizations, and software malfunctions (bugs) can cause issues during ERP system testing.
    • The Preparing phase includes user profiling, training, and system start-up, leading to the go-live phase.
    • User profiling ensures that users have access to specific parts of the ERP system based on their roles, with super users having access to the entire system.
    • Training for ERP system usage is crucial and often under-budgeted, involving new business processes and specialized training by super users.
    • The system start-up procedure involves turning off the old system, final data migration, system checks, and the actual go-live of the ERP system.
