Enterprise resource planning (ERP) is the name given to the planning of acquisition, control and movement of a company’s resources. These resources can include customers, products, employees and even projects. Traditionally, resource planning and management was a time-consuming and costly part of running a company, but with the computerization and technological advancement of recent years it no longer has to be this way thanks to modern ERP systems.

An ERP system is basically a collection of software that can automate and control many, if not all, of a company’s resource management tasks. This could include a warehouse management system (WMS) for example, that can monitor the stock levels of materials and products in a company’s warehouses. Such a system might include a barcode scanner for adding products to the database, and a simple system for updating the counts. A warehouse management system may even be able to automatically generate orders based on the current levels of stock and produce reports detailing in a concise manner the movement of stock into and out of the warehouse.
