Benefit from ERP and ECM Integration
ERP system represents one of the key information systems in almost every organization. These systems are primarily aimed at resources planning and management processes. However, the database-transaction view of an ERP system commonly misses the documents and data archiving or management functionality. Processing of non-structured data (as for example paper and electronic documents, technical schemes, e-mails, faxes, etc.) is limited and often impossible with ERP. Solution consists in ERP integration with Enterprise Content Management.
There are certain typical areas from the perspective of the information content integration:
- Administration and circulation of internal and incoming documents – primarily aimed at financial documents or documents forming part of the business cycle. This area typically comprises a solution for paper documents digitization or integration to e-mail communication with clients. Furthermore, there is commonly need for using the workflow of the above-mentioned documents either using the WF integrated in given ERP environment, or as a separate Business Process Management.
- Outgoing documents, print reports – this is the area characterized by need for long-term archiving and demonstrability of the form of documents leaving the company or it comprises the documents presented to internal or external financial controlling authorities. Logical requirement in the area of outgoing documents and reports is to implement a clear organization of documents, for example according to the partner or time aspect of the financial period.
- Database archiving – dealing with closed financial data extraction from the active ERP database. This data can be thus securely archived for the required period of time while the database reduction promotes system stability, speed, and possible recovery. Database archiving is also relevant in the environment of data warehouses which dynamically manipulate with analyzed data content. Its archiving represents the way of relieving the systems from out-of-date or unused data.
Characteristics:
- Efficient management and integration of data and documents providing maximal information comfort for decision making or activity
- Secure and user friendly access within an integrated environment using electronic documents circulation
- Digitization of documents entering the company processes
- Elimination of ERP system's limits from the perspective of active database data volume
- Assurance of secure and long-term storage of required documents in line with relevant legislation
The solution is suitable for all business areas.
