One of the main benefits of ERP systems is that they can integrate and streamline various business processes across an enterprise, such as accounting, inventory, sales, human resources, etc. However, this also means that different regions or departments may have to adopt common or standardized processes that are supported by the ERP system, rather than using their own customized or localized ones. This can reduce the complexity and cost of implementing and maintaining the ERP system, as well as improve data quality and consistency. According to one of the web search results1, “it’s important to always keep those processes at the core of yourimplementation plan” and “an ERP implementation is an opportunity to introduce a better process, not simply to automate an existing inefficient one.” Another web search result2 states that “standardizing ERP processes across regions” is one of the best practices for a successful ERP implementation. Therefore, the best approach in the planning phase of the project is to minimize customization by standardizing ERP processes across regions. References := 9 Key ERP Implementation Best Practices | NetSuite, 6 Best Practices for a Successful ERP Implementation
