Microsoft has compiled a 5 step guide that will help you assess whether your company needs an ERP system, as well as explains what actions are required to choose and implement this system according to the needs of your business.
ERP is an abbreviation for Enterprise Resource Planning. It is a company resource management system that allows you to integrate all the business essentials in a single location, efficiently control and plan financial, warehouse, manufacturing, trade, customer service and personnel processes, as well as provides real-time data, the required reports and access to statistics.
The Riga Airport organization aptly compares Microsoft Dynamics 365 with the central nervous system or blood circulation in an organism that allows automating various actions, integrating several systems in a single location and facilitating the work of many company employees.
