Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems can provide the foundation for a wide range of e-commerce based processes including web-based ordering and order tracing, inventory management, and built-to-order goods. This book examines the pros and cons of ERP systems, explains how they work, and highlights their role at the heart of e-commerce. It contains several detailed case studies and will be an invaluable guide to managers and consultants working with ERP systems. It will also be a useful reference for MBA students taking courses in information systems management.

Recenzje

'The book is divided into four parts: introduction and background, ERP systems, the ERP life cycle, and electronic commerce and risk. It contains case studies, references, chapter questions, and a complete index. the chapters are well written, with objectives, figures, and clear divisions into sections. The book does not contain canned answers, but carefully walks readers through thinking about ERP systems. I highly recommend it.' Brad Reid, Computing Milieux
